Steps to make Puran Poli / Obattu:
  1. Method - - In a pressure cooker, add washed dal and water about 3 cups. - cook for 2-3 whistles, until soft. - Use a strainer, to drain the dal. - The more water gets drained, the faster can the filling be made. - in a bowl, add the drained dal, jaggery and coconut. - Rest for 10-15 minutes, it allows more water to release. - In a nonstick pan, add the mixture and cook while stirring continuously. - it takes about 20 -25 minutes,depending on the amount of water.
  2. Add 2 teaspoons of ghee to give it a shine. - wet your palms and when you touch the dough, it should not stick to the hands. - If it does, continue to cook for a few more minutes. - The colour of the filling depends on the jaggery used. Here I have used organic jaggery and hence the full is dark brown. If you use light colour jaggery, the filling will be light yellow.
  3. Allow the mixture to cool completely. - make medium sized balls and set aside. - for the covering, in a bowl add semolina, maida, salt and turmeric. - dry mix the ingredients and add water as required to make a soft dough. - pour about 1/4 th cup of oil and make impressions with your fingers. This helps oil to distribute and the dough will not dry out.
  4. Cover and set aside for 2-3 hours. - after an hour check the dough, if all the oil has soaked up add another 1/4 th cup oil. - to make obattu, tear a lemon sized dough. - Place - the filling in the centre and close the filling from all sides. - press by hand and place on a rolling board. - flatten the obattu, by applying even pressure and making a thin roti.
  5. The oil in the dough should be enough to roll this. But if the dough is sticking to your fingers, dip your hand in oil and work. - place the obattu on a hot griddle and cook on both sides. - use additional ghee while serving. - the obattu keeps soft even after many hours due to oil in the dough.
