verki puri recipe | how to make crispy varki puri | verki snack with step by step photo and video recipe. festival season is around the corner and many would jump on making the sweets and desserts to it. at the same time, the savoury snacks play a major role in it and also a sought after recipe. one such simple and popular snack recipe is the verki puri recipe from the popular cuisine of western india.
the recipe texture of verki puri is very similar to my previous post of chiroti recipe. just that chirotti is sweet in taste, whereas varki puri is spicy and savoury. the addition of black pepper, cumin and also salt makes it an edible crisp snack. otherwise the texture, recipe method and also the flakiness. having said that i personally like this recipe compared to the sweeter version of it. it could be the reason because i generally like savoury snacks compared to sweets and desserts. in addition, i have turned to be more health-conscious and generally avoid sugar-based recipes.
anyway, some important tips, suggestions and variations for a perfectly flaky and crispy verki puri recipe. firstly, i always recommend to use maida for this recipe and do not attempt with wheat or any other flours. varki puri is known for its crispiness and flakiness which can be derived only with plain flour. secondly, i have layered 7 layers of rolled roti to achieve the flakiness. you can increase or decrease the number as per your preference. lastly the dough has to be kneaded very tightly which may be an issue to roll, but required to get the desired texture. also do not forget to deep fry in small batches as it has to be cooked evenly.
finally, i request you to visit my other detailed snacks recipes collection with this post of verki puri recipe. it mainly includes festival snack recipes like masala poori, sev puri, methi puri, pyaz ki kachori, dahi puri, masala puri, pani puri, farsi puri, banana buns, puri for pani puri. further, to these i would like to highlight my other detailed recipes collection like,
