Best served warm with any Indian curry 


Phulkas (oil-free Indian puffy bread) 

Ingredients

  • 2 cup whole wheat flour
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tsp. sugar
  • extra flour for dusting
  • enough milk to make dough
  • pan & metal mesh for making Phulkas


Method
  • In a large bowl,  add flour, salt & sugar, and make a soft dough using milk (I haven't added any water in this recipe).  Rest this dough for 2 hours
  • Pull out lemon sized balls from the dough and roll into round shapes
  • Pre-heat a pan and roast on one side by allowing it to raise a little (don't use oil for roasting)
  • remove from pan and place directly on to pre-heated metal mesh and roast the other side and allow it to puff (like puris)
  • remove from heat and place the hot phulkas covered in kitchen towel or aluminium foil until you serve
