this is a must if you are looking to
0:02
explore Delhi food because this is right
0:04
from where I grew up These buras are so
0:08
nice and fluffy easy to make and a must
0:12
with cholay You can either have it with
0:15
my Delhi style cholay recipe or check
0:18
out my homestyle They're both amazing
0:21
and they both give you a completely
0:23
different flavor of Delhi I'm going to
0:26
take the flour put some of the baking
0:29
powder and soda right in
0:32
there along with the semolina A good
0:36
salt Give all that good
0:40
mix And then here is some ghee You can
0:44
add oil as well but ghee is just so much
0:47
better for you and so much more tasty
0:53
Now kind of like making a pie crust if
0:56
you've made that before you want to mix
0:58
it until the dough is all nice and
1:03
crumbly Not only will the ghee help make
1:06
the dough really soft will also help
1:09
with getting it really nice
1:13
fragrant and crispy when this starts to
1:16
puff up Now some yogurt goes right in
1:20
there And then start adding in some warm
1:24
water and add a splash And then we just
1:29
work add a splash and just work this out
1:33
until you get a nice smooth and soft
1:38
dough Now just lightly
1:40
brush with a bit of ghee or oil on each
1:44
side Now just cover it and let this
1:47
ferment for about 3 to 4 hours So now
1:51
it's been about 3 and 1/2 hours and this
1:55
is what the dough looks like Time to
1:58
portion this out Now just break off
2:05
portions Just like that We'll roll it
2:08
out And usually you would see puras are
2:11
in an oval kind of shape You definitely
2:14
can't go too thick but then don't go too
2:17
thin either And it's okay if you don't
2:19
get it right the first time On this side
2:23
here I have some ghee heating up and you
2:25
can probably see it's smoking just a
2:28
slight bit Then add this carefully to
2:31
the hot key And then just slosh around
2:33
that ghee over the bread It will
2:36
immediately start to puff up And just
2:38
keep bathing and sloshing that ghee
2:41
gently over it until it's nice and puffy
2:44
and you get a beautiful golden brown key
2:48
infused pada And if you did everything
2:52
right this is what you're going to end
2:54
up with This amazingly puffed pad is the
2:57
most amazing way to enjoy chickpeas made
3:00
North Indian style Now before you go let
3:02
me show you how you enjoy this Bura
3:05
bread The right way the deli way to
3:11
So get the air out so you don't burn
3:13
yourself A nice soft piece Some of your
3:19
chickpeas and then some
3:22
onion and a bit of that chili This right
3:25
here just the smell of it the colors the
3:28
look takes me right back to Delhi To see
