Posted on May 8th, 2024 03:13 PM

Ingredients:

- 1 cup Organic Toor dal (Pigeon peas)

- 1 cup Organic jaggery powder

- 1 cup Ripe mango pulp

- 1 cup Organic wheat flour

- 1/4 teaspoon Organic turmeric powder

- 1/4 teaspoon Organic cardamom powder

- Ghee or oil for cooking

- Water as needed


Instructions:

1. Wash the organic toor dal thoroughly and soak it in water for 2-3 hours. Drain the water and slowly cook the dal over a flame until soft. Alternatively, pressure cook the dal until tender.

2. Once the dal is cooked, drain any excess water and mash it well using a masher or the back of a spoon.

3. In a pan, combine the mashed dal and organic jaggery powder. Cook the mixture on low heat until the jaggery melts and blends with the dal, forming a thick puran (filling). Add cardamom powder and mix well. Allow the puranas to cool down.

4. Once the puran mixture has cooled, add the ripe mango pulp and mix until well combined. Roast the mixture for a few minutes to enhance the flavours. Set aside.

5. In a mixing bowl, combine organic wheat flour, turmeric powder, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water to form a soft dough. Let the dough rest for 15-20 minutes.

6. Divide the dough and mango puran mixture into equal-sized balls.

7. Take a portion of the dough and roll it out into a small circle. Place a portion of the mango puran mixture in the centre of the circle. Bring the edges of the dough together and seal them properly to encase the filling. Gently flatten the stuffed dough ball.

8. Heat a tawa (griddle) over medium heat. Place the stuffed dough ball on the hot tawa and cook it on both sides until golden brown, using ghee or oil as needed to cook evenly.

9. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and mango puran mixture to make more puran polis.

10. Serve the mango puran polis hot with a dollop of ghee, or enjoy them as is. They pair wonderfully with hot A2 milk for a wholesome treat.
