Total time: 60 min
Ingredients: For the Poli:; 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour ((you can use whole-wheat if you're truly health-fanatical, but a high-gluten flour gives a beautiful, flaky texture that you won't get with whole wheat)); 1 tsp rava or sooji ((cream of wheat)); 1 tsp rice flour; 1/4 tsp salt; 2 tsp vegetable oil; Water; For the Puran:; 1 cup chana dal ((bengal gram dal), cooked until tender but not mushy. The lentils should still be whole, so you can drain out all the cooking water easily.); 1 cup jaggery (, chopped (you can substitute sugar, although be warned that jaggery is what makes this dish truly special with its richness-- you can find it at any Indian grocery store)); 1 tsp cardamom powder; 1 tsp vegetable oil
