PHOLOURIE

Ingredients

3 cups flour

¼ cup ground split peas powder

1 tsp baking powder

1 small packet instant yeast

1 tsp sugar

½ tsp ground geera

½ tsp amchar masala

½ tsp turmeric powder

2 – 3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp sugar

1 tsp salt

Pinch black pepper

1½ – 2 cups warm water

Vegetable oil for deep frying

Directions

  1. In a bowl, add the all the dry ingredients and mix well to combine.
  2. Add the minced garlic and mix into the dry ingredients.
  3. Add enough warm water to make a soft batter. Cover and let rest for 1½ hours.
  4. Heat oil in a pot over medium high heat.
  5. Drop batter by spoonfuls into the hot oil a few at a time. Let cook for a few minutes : the pholourie will float to the surface. Keep turning in the oil for a few minutes until cooked through.
    Place the pholourie on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
  6. Serve hot with your choice of chutney.

Trinicooks Tips

Dip the spoon in some water ever so often to help the batter drop easily from the spoon.
