Here is the video link of the recipe

Lets proceed making the poli mixture:

• Add Wheat and maida
• Add salt , ghee ,  and turmeric mix it well. 
• Now using water knead a soft dough. 
• Once the dough is really soft, take salt and ghee in your palm and then start kneading it with dough nicely till you get the right consistency.  Place a damp cloth over it and keep it aisde.

Lets start preparing puran or the sweet filling:

• Place pressure cooker with enough water to cook and let it boil , once it comes to boil add chana dal. Then add turmeric and oil. 
• Note: Chana dal takes longer time to cook over the normal tur dal which we use for preparing dal tadka. Therefore make sure you wait a little longer and let it whistle more till the chana dal is cooked nicely. 
• Now take a bowl and place a sieve over it. 
• Take out the chana dal and strain the excess water , if any.
• In a large saucepan add cooked chana dal cook and add jaggery and let it melt, mix the mixture well and finally add elaichi powder.
• You can also add nutmeg or jaifal powder , it is optional.
• Once the puran is thick enough , remove it off the flame ,place it again on sieve and start mashing it. We are mashing it because we need a very smooth thick mixture with no chana dal pieces in it as it will tear the puran poli. 
• You can use this technique in case you don't have mixer otherwise you can get this using a mixer or we also get puran poli machine in market.
• Whatever method you use make sure you get a smooth plain mixture without in lumps. Now keep the mixture aside.

• Place it in centre and start covering the puran with dough. Seal the top and roll out puran poli.
• Now take a tawa and let it heat well. Place a rolled out puran poli over it add ghee on both sides and let it cook. Once the one side is brown turn it and cook other side. Puran poli is ready.
• Serve this puran poli hot with ghee or you can also try having it with Aamras , I just love the combination of puran poli and Aamras.
