Five medium puris, a beloved staple of Indian cuisine, are deep-fried whole wheat bread commonly served with savory accompaniments. Puris are crafted from a simple dough of whole wheat flour, water, and a pinch of salt, rolled into small discs and fried until puffed and golden brown. Originating in India, puris are a versatile dish enjoyed across various regions, often accompanying vegetables, lentils, or sweet dishes like halwa. While made with nutrient-rich whole wheat flour offering fiber and essential minerals, puris are high in calories and fat due to their deep-frying process. Moderation is key when consuming puris, as their oil content can contribute to excessive saturated fats. Pairing puris with healthy sides like chickpea curry or steamed vegetables can enhance nutritional balance. They are a treat best enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet.
