About Puran puri

Puran Puri is a popular Indian sweet flatbread, primarily enjoyed in Maharashtra and Gujarat. It consists of whole wheat flour dough stuffed with a sweet filling made from cooked split Bengal gram (chana dal), jaggery (unrefined sugar), and seasoned with cardamom and nutmeg. The dough is rolled out, filled with the mixture, and then cooked on a griddle with a hint of ghee (clarified butter). Puran Puri provides protein and fiber from the lentils and trace minerals from jaggery, making it a nourishing festive treat. However, its high carbohydrate content and the use of ghee or sugar make moderation key. Often prepared during festivals like Holi or Ganesh Chaturthi, it reflects India’s rich culinary tradition. Enjoyed as a dessert or a main dish, Puran Puri is a wholesome delight when balanced with lighter accompaniments for a meal.
