Poori is a traditional Indian bread made from unleavened whole wheat flour dough, rolled into small discs, and deep-fried until it puffs up. A staple in Indian cuisine, Poori is often enjoyed alongside curries, vegetables, or sweet dishes like halwa. Its rich golden color and crispy, airy texture make it an appealing addition to meals and festive occasions. Nutritionally, Poori provides energy through carbohydrates from the wheat flour. However, its deep-fried preparation introduces a higher fat content, making it less ideal for those seeking low-calorie or heart-healthy options. In moderation, it can be a delightful treat, particularly when paired with nutrient-rich sides. Variations of Poori are found throughout South Asia, reflecting cultural and regional diversity in preparation and flavor.
