Protein Atta Puri Recipe – Soft & Nutritious Puri

Prashant Agarwal

Puris are a festive favorite in most Indian homes, but regular refined-flour puris don't offer much nutritional value. This protein atta puri recipe gives you the same soft, puffed-up puris your family loves, with extra protein going into every batch, thanks to Gourmet Staples Protein Atta (28g protein per 100g).

Prep time: 15 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Makes: 12 puris

Ingredients:
1.5 cups Gourmet Staples Protein Atta
1 tbsp semolina (sooji), optional for extra crispness
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp oil (for dough)
Water, as needed
Oil, for deep frying

Method:
1. In a bowl, mix Protein Atta, semolina, and salt.
2. Add 1 tsp oil and rub it into the flour with your fingers.
3. Slowly add water and knead into a firm, smooth dough, slightly stiffer than roti dough.
4. Cover the dough and rest for 15–20 minutes.
5. Divide the dough into small equal balls. Roll each into a small circle, about 3–4 inches in diameter.
6. Heat oil in a kadhai on medium-high flame. Once hot, gently slide in a rolled puri.
7. Press lightly with a slotted spoon so it puffs up. Fry until golden on both sides.
8. Drain on a paper towel and serve hot with aloo sabzi or curd.

Why This Recipe Works:
A firm dough and hot oil give you puris that puff up and stay light, while the protein atta adds far more protein than a maida puri. It is ideal for festive meals or a weekend brunch.

FAQs:

Why is my protein atta puri not puffing up?
Make sure the dough is firm (not soft like roti dough) and the oil is hot enough before frying. This helps the puri puff properly.

Can I make protein atta puri healthier by baking instead of frying?
Yes, you can bake them at 200°C for 10–12 minutes, though the texture will be closer to a papdi than a traditional puri.

How long do protein atta puris stay fresh?
They taste best fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
