In a bowl mix together plain flour, self raising flour, salt, sugar and oil.
Gradually add water and knead till a smooth dough is formed.
Cover and leave aside the dough to rise.
Divide the dough into portions and shape into small balls.
Brush each ball of puri with oil or dip a corner of ball in melted ghee or oil.
Roll out each ball into 4 to 5 inches round.
Heat oil in a wok and fry the puris, press the puri with a steel spoon while frying so that it will swell up like a ball.
Place the puri on an absorbent paper and serve.
Pleasebe judicious and courteous in selecting your words.

Have any one tried this recipe ? i have tried many recipes but the puri tends to dry after being fried no matter how exact i follow the recipe, ingredients and the method.... So i wana know the basic secret that keeps the puri crispy as well as soft after cooking... like the one we eat in Pakistan and they remain velvety soft and dont tend to break at all....
this recipe is so easy....
so easy iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii realy like newyork mein i missed pakistan when i see this recipe i always think kash halwa puri idhar bhi milte i miss my mom who cooks puri for me kise ki bhi halwa puri mein mere ami ka taste nahi a sakta

Shamaila, you can use baking soda instead of self raising flour in this recipe. But make sure you balance it with quantity of flour.
can v use yeast or edible soda (khaney ka soda) in flour instead of self raising flour???????

Mr/Miss Bdsam, 1- Sugar....Yes we missed to mention sugar. Thanks to point out. The recipe is updated now.2- Oil...... 2tbsp oil is written in the ingredients list that is used in step 1.3- About flour.... We will try to follow your suggestion.
Hi where did the sugar go? i think you forgot to mention the sugar. And in the ingrediant its written oil for frying and in the procedure no.1 you have mentioned oil too, but doesn't say how much. please clarify. And please make sure you have names in urdu as well, as many people get confused between plain flour, wheat flour and self raising flour. thanx.
very good
VERY DUM RECIPE
I like this recipe very much. I have tried it successfully many a times. Keep in mind that swelling up of Puri like a ball depends on the FRESHNESS of self-rising flour.
