Pooran Poli

Ingredients:
Bengal gram dal - 1 cup
Jaggery - 1 cup
Maida - 1 1/2 cups
Turmeric powder - a pinch (optional)
Cardamom - 4 or 1 tsp
Oil - to knead the dough soft
Ghee for frying

Method:
Soak the channa dal for 1-2 hours.
Cook the dal in pressure cooker. Drain all the excess water.Keep it aside & allow it to cool.
Then add the powdered jaggery & cardamom to this dal.
Grind the dal + jaggery + cardamom mixture without adding water in the blender/mixie.
Heat this mixture for few min. and make small lemon size balls.
In a bowl, mix maida, oil, water, salt and turmeric powder. Make very soft & sticky dough. Knead very well. Use oil to knead.
Cover the dough and keep this aside for 1hr, so that the dough will be very soft.
Take a ball of dough and spread with hand & make a cheppu. Keep a ball of channa mixture and cover with the dough and seal all the ends completely.
Roll this using palms or even you can roll it like chappathi. But do it very carefully, because the inner mixture shouldnot come out.
Heat a tawa & roast this with ghee.
Delicious Pooran Poli is ready to serve.
