North Indian-Style Puri Sabji Brunch | Homestyle Indian Recipe | Cooking with Anadi

Hey everyone, this is a recipe that is very dear to my heart and one of my all-time favourites. Puri is a fried whole wheat bread in ghee, or clarified butter. The sabji is a curry of potatoes and tomatoes to make a luscious gravy. Pair this with some plain yogurt to offset the heat and you're in for a brunch of a lifetime! I hope you'll enjoy this recipe as much as I do :)

hey guys today I'm going to make for you
0:02
a really special meal which is a very
0:04
close to my heart I love this dish as a
0:07
kid
0:07
and I still do and I think it's not the
0:09
most fun and delicious vegetarian dishes
0:12
of all time so today I'll be making for
0:14
you some pullies and some sub G and
0:17
subdue the spoons a vegetable stir-fry
0:18
in this case the curry with some
0:21
potatoes and tomato it's really simple
0:24
and pourings basically are deep fried
0:27
whole wheat bread which is coffee and
0:31
it's fried in some key which adds a lot
0:34
of flavor and I can't wait to eat this
0:36
so let's get started right now
0:38
this recipe will need to the ginger and
0:42
garlic with just chopped finely now you
0:46
want to make sure the ginger is twice
0:49
the amount of garlic then you have some
0:52
fresh tomatoes and put spices again some
0:54
salt along with some garam masala
0:57
kitchen king two red chili powder you're
1:00
also going to need some boiled potatoes
1:02
here I'm using some small potatoes to
1:05
boil these potatoes you can either cook
1:07
it in a pressure cooker you can even
1:10
chop it up into 1-inch cubes and cook it
1:14
in the microwave or any other way that
1:16
you prefer I find the fastest way is
1:18
doing pressure cookers so first let's
1:20
get started on our tomatoes and for that
1:23
I have a pot of water which is boiling
1:24
and we're going to quickly cook these in
1:27
the boiling water for a few minutes and
1:30
then put this in an ice water bath and
1:33
be skim these tomatoes now water is
1:36
boiling right now and I'm going to add
1:38
in my tomato
1:39
so what tomatoes are in and now let this
1:42
cook and what you want to wait for it's
1:46
for the skin of the tomatoes to get all
1:48
wrinkly that'll give you a sign that the
1:50
skin is ready to be peeled so it's been
1:52
about 45 minutes and as you can see our
1:58
tomato the skin halide torn apart and be
2:03
careful but you can see like can easily
2:06
sort of peel this apart so let's now
2:10
transfer this into a cold water bath
2:13
it's going to help them cool down a bit
2:15
and then we can proceed and be in these
2:19
Tomatoes and now these can then just
2:21
literally peel that skin off and discard
2:27
of it just need the palate to make a
2:30
nice thick smooth tomato sauce and what
2:35
the skin does is it kind of like
2:37
incorporates these inconsistency these
2:40
rough areas in the sauce can slide you
2:44
can never completely grind it using our
2:49
home appliances into a smooth paste so
2:52
you'll always feel something you won't
2:55
get that nice smooth texture you're
2:59
looking for just continue so the rest of
3:02
the tomatoes and then we're going to
3:03
grind these up that's ready and we have
3:09
all our music class done and now let's
3:12
get started I'm making our sauce now two
3:14
spatulas of failed to mention earlier
3:16
with the cumin seeds and some heating or
3:19
asafoetida the hing has a really nice
3:21
flavor and you can learn more about it
3:24
you can check out my series on the
3:25
spices which is called let's make it
3:27
spicy so be sure to check this out and
3:30
now let's get started and make the sauce
3:32
so I have here some oil heating on
3:35
medium heat and I'm going to add a nice
3:41
teaspoon of cumin seed and with that
3:44
it's not the thing
3:45
I add some delicious flavor
3:48
now this is bringing some amazing aroma
3:51
right now and it's just delicious but
3:54
obviously you can eat that right now so
3:56
let's do four more things to it next I'm
3:58
gonna add in my ginger and garlic make
4:02
sure to keep stirring you don't want it
4:03
to burn a thick that's going to add some
4:06
bitterness into your final dish cook
4:09
this out and this is using more ginger
4:13
and garlic the salt imparts a strong
4:15
flavor of ginger which really brings out
4:18
the amazing flavors and makes this dish
4:22
so much more enjoyable
4:24
like the gin garlic a beginning to tone
4:26
brown we don't want to go too far with
4:29
it but now let's add in our pureed
4:31
tomatoes give us a nice stir and bring
4:36
it up to a simmer so sauce has come up
4:39
to a simmer and now we're going to add
4:40
in some a schmear red chili powder or
4:42
big image to add in some color and some
4:45
spice
4:46
now as tomatoes coat they have something
4:49
in them called lycopene which naturally
4:52
turns the tomatoes redder as they cook
4:54
so that chili powder some kitchen kings
5:03
and some garam masala we are also going
5:07
to add in some tumeric add a nice flavor
5:10
and bring some more color more character
5:15
toward it give it a nice stir so now you
5:19
want to put this until you have tomato
5:22
to completely cook and what will be
5:24
indicated for that is when oil starts to
5:27
release on the corner of the pan so just
5:31
slowly simmer it on medium low heat and
5:34
and stir from time to time so I'm going
5:37
to put a lid on and let this simmer for
5:39
a few minutes so here's our sauce now as
5:43
you can see it's become really thick you
5:47
see all that amazing ginger garlic and
5:50
this just tastes amazing now keep in
5:53
mind we haven't added salt yet we're
5:55
going to add that towards the end and
5:57
adjust for seasoning now to finish the
6:00
sauce we're going to add in our potatoes
6:03
just make some rough cuts to a potato
6:09
want some nice big chunks of potato this
6:13
is really enjoyable to eat it like that
6:16
so similarly cut the other potatoes so
6:19
now adding your potatoes into your sauce
6:21
now be gentle you don't want to break
6:24
these potatoes so what you want to do
6:26
now is fill your potatoes for 5 to 10
6:29
minutes in this sauce and we make sure
6:32
that the potato absolves that amazing
6:36
flavor
6:37
in the sauce so after you've added your
6:40
potatoes and your sauce and some hot
6:43
water preferably because it's going to
6:45
like kind of save you some time but the
6:48
water won't have to warm up and come to
6:50
a boil again so I need some of this
6:52
water you want to pin this out a bit to
6:56
have a nice smooth little thick sauce
6:59
and I want to just simmer this for five
7:01
to ten minutes until the sauce starts to
7:04
become thick again and simmering it for
7:07
this time it's going to help all those
7:09
flavors to get in just the tails so now
7:11
we're going to start making our Poli
7:13
breads so for that we're going to make
7:14
our dough and I'm going to be using Auto
7:16
flour which is the official flower to
7:19
make booties so in here I have 3 cups of
7:21
auto flour and I'm going to use a
7:24
KitchenAid because it's honestly much
7:26
easier and I'm so happy I don't have to
7:28
knead by hand anymore so you can always
7:32
measure out 3 cups of flour in a big
7:34
bowl if you don't have a KitchenAid and
7:37
now let's start making our dough and I'm
7:39
going to start adding in a little bit of
7:41
water at a time and make a nice dough I
7:43
want to turn this on to low just start
7:47
adding in my water here's what my dough
7:52
looks like now and this is just perfect
7:54
I'm gonna stop now now as you can see
7:57
it's not sticky at all and it's all
8:00
smooth and it has a little bit of
8:03
springiness but it needs to be a bit
8:06
hard since we need this kind of dough to
8:09
make sure our tories fluff up when they
8:12
go in the oil so often you have kneaded
8:14
your dough put it in a large enough bowl
8:17
cover it with a damp cloth a damp
8:20
kitchen towel or some damp paper towels
8:23
it's going to help relax the dough and
8:25
it's going to make our final product
8:28
fluffy soft and delicious
8:31
in about 10 to 15 minutes as you can see
8:33
our potatoes have completely absorbed
8:36
our delicious sauce that's why they've
8:39
changed that coloring to this more
8:40
reddish tinge the consistency is perfect
8:43
and now we're going to add in our salt
8:47
and taste the seasoning give it a quick
8:53
taste and add in a little bit more salt
8:56
so this around so as you can see it's
9:01
this nice thick consistency still
9:04
portable but this is perfect
9:07
and have it please according to me this
9:09
is how I like it so now it's the fun
9:12
part now then we start making more
9:14
Therese so here has some key or
9:16
clarified butter which it bought at the
9:19
local Indians don't really suggest you
9:20
use ghee you set up any other
9:22
alternative
9:23
since the flavor that kiemce parts and
9:26
the putti is unmask and it's the most
9:29
delicious way to have please so now I
9:31
have this heating on medium to
9:33
medium-high heat and I've taken a ball
9:36
from my dough and you have some extra
9:40
flour and that's going to be our button
9:44
or just some dusting flour to help make
9:47
sure our dough isn't sticking and you're
9:50
rolling it out so now let's roll this
9:52
out into a flat disk you don't want to
9:58
make it to ten since we want this to
10:01
puff up and be how to employee so
10:04
traditionally be so before we start
10:07
frying our buoys let's test our oil and
10:10
for that you can just dip a little bit
10:15
of your dough and your buoy should rise
10:19
up immediately and as you can see it
10:21
didn't rise up immediately so we want to
10:24
let this heat up for a bit longer time
10:26
so let's start frying our please I'm
10:29
going to take my desk here and carefully
10:32
lay it into my oil now magic is going to
10:38
happen
10:38
look at that popping up using a slotted
10:41
spoon just kind of press down on it to
10:44
submerge in the oil and look at that
10:47
beautiful flip it sucks on the other
10:50
side but I can't ask for more that's
10:53
torque I don't like it too crispy you
10:56
can try making it see how you like it
10:58
you can just make the whole top
11:00
and that makes it really crispy I don't
11:03
just prefer the more softer skin on the
11:05
top that's perfect
11:07
that's your pulley and continue to make
11:11
as we push as you want with the door you
11:15
have I'm aiming to make more than 20
11:17
there you have it guys some delicious
11:20
homemade pulley subji well it is only
11:23
you don't get this at a restaurant and
11:25
it makes for an amazing brunch or supper
11:28
I tend to love this dish with some plain
11:31
yogurt I think it goes really well the
11:34
heart from the curry and the code from
11:36
the yogurt is just a deadly combination
