Steps to make Puran Poli:
- Rinse the chana dal first very well in water. I didn’t soak the chana dal but you can soak the chana dal for 30 minutes to one hour and then drain the water.
- In a pressure cooker, cook the chana dal for 5-6 whistles. the dal need not be cooked completely about 85 to 90% cooked is fine. once the pressure settles down on it's own, strain the cooked dal. keep the dal in the strainer for some minutes so that all the stock is drained. the cooked lentils have to be drained very well. keep the stock aside. this stock can be used for making katachi amti (thin dal)
- Heat a pan and add the cooked chana dal and powdered or grated jaggery, Cardamom powder stir and let this puran mixture cook on a low flame till the mixture becomes dry. Keep on stirring at intervals.

- All the edges and pinch then sprinkle some flour and start rolling the dough.
- Make a medium or large circle (poli) as depending upon the size of the dough and puran filling you took. the cover should be rolled a bit thin and not thick.
