Ingredients

  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour / Maida
  • 3 tbsp Sugar powdered
  • Water as required to knead

Instructions

How to make Goan Sweet Buns

  • In a wide bowl, take all purpose flour, turmeric powder, sugar, salt, cumin seeds and cooking oil. Mix well.
  • Slowly add warm water to the bowl and knead to a soft dough.
  • Cover well and let it ferment overnight or for atleast 8 hours.
  • After fermentation, remove the cover and knead well.
  • Divide into equal balls. Dust the balls and roll into 6 inch diameter.
  • Heat a kadai with cooking oil. When hot, slide the pooris and cook on both sides.
  • Gently press on the top for the pooris to puff up.
  • Once cooked on both sides, drain to a kitchen towel.
  • Serve with side dish of your choice.

Notes

Since the dough needs at least 8 hours of fermentation, plan accordingly. With 2 cups of flour, I got about 6 to 7 pooris of little bigger size.
