If you have grown up in an Indian household, you must be well-versed that pooris are meant for special feasts. From halwa chana poori during festivals to poori bhaji for breakfast, Indian cuisine proudly boasts pooris instead of chapatis as a part of any traditional meal. Well, it seems that the Internet has blessed us with a new recipe for the rich variety of this deep-fried Indian bread. Presenting — “Meethi poori.” An Instagram user shared a video, demonstrating the making of meethi poori, but it failed to impress the Internet. Why? Its bulged out dotted surface. Basically, the Instagram user, in the clip, can be seen pressing rolled-up dough on the back side of a flat colander. The innumerable small holes on the colander created several protruded holes on one side of the flatbread. Next, she can be seen brushing what seems like a sweet syrup on the same side and frying the poori. Although the end result was a fluffy poori, after frying those dots turned brown. The clip was shared with a simple “meethi poori” written in the caption.
