METHOD - STEP BY STEP PICTURES

In a wide bowl, mash the ripen banana with a fork or hands. Do not grind in a mixie.   To this, add salt, sugar, cooking soda, cumin seeds and curd.Mix well to make a paste. Add all purpose flour gradually and mix well to make a dough. Do not add water. Add little curd if needed. Knead for few minutes. Dough should be thick. Cover the dough and rest for minimum 6 hours or overnight.  Grease your hands with little oil and knead the dough for few minutes. Make small balls of uniform size. Dust the ball with maida and roll it to small, thick poori of palm size. Arrange in a plate. Heat oil and drop a pinch of dough. If it rises to the top immediately, drop one poori. Splash oil over the puri and press gently. It will become puffy. Flip it and cook the other side till golden brown. Remove in a tissue paper and drain it. Grind all the ingredients given under “Coconut chutney” to a smooth paste adding required water. You can temper the chutney if you like. Serve hot poori with coconut chutney. Enjoy !

Note

You can add more sugar if you like more sweet taste.But color of poori would be dark.  Do not use water to make the dough.Add little more curd if needed. Resting time of minimum 6 hours is needed. Overnight is also fine. If you rest the dough for lesser time, Poori will come out hard and chewy. For variations you can add equal quantity of wheat flour and maida. But poori comes out bit dense in texture.
