Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, and salt.

Step 2

Gradually add hot water and mix with a spoon until a dough forms. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Divide the dough into small balls and roll them into thin puris using a rolling pin. Keep them covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying.

Step 4

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Fry the puris one at a time until they puff up and turn golden brown. Drain excess oil on paper towels.

Step 5

For the spiced potatoes, heat olive oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and allow them to splutter.

Step 6

Add minced ginger, garlic, and green chilies. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and garam masala. Stir well.

Step 8

Add the diced potatoes and salt. Mix until the potatoes are well coated with the spices.

Step 9

Cook on medium heat for about 5-7 minutes or until the potatoes are slightly crispy.

Step 10

Turn off the heat and add lemon juice and chopped cilantro. Mix well and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 11

Serve the spiced potatoes with the hot crispy low-carb puris.
