Poornam bobbatlu || Pooranam holigalu || puran poli || Poornam bakshalu

Poornam holigalu || Poornam bakshalu || Puran poli with pics and tips. Happy Diwali - 2021 to all friends and family 🎆🎇Poornam bakshalu is Indian flatbread prepared by using different stuffings. Puran poli is also popularly known as bobbatlu or bakshalu in Telugu, holige in Kannada and poli in Tamil. This is one of the main sweet recipe prepared on special occasions in South India. Mainly in my home town Adoni it is prepared on special occasions like Ganesh festival, Vara Lakshmi pooja,Diwali, Lakshmamavayya jathara, functions like marriages, naming ceremony etc.., We can prepare different varieties of poli like puran poli, coconut poli, vegetable poli, karam poli, sooji poli. In all these Puran poli is very popularly, which is prepared by using sweet dal stuffing called as poornam in Telugu. We can prepare dough using all purpose flour or wheat flour or chiroti rava. Today I am using chiroti rava to prepare dough instead of maida. Let's start recipe..

3) Now press the above with your fingers all the corner and give it round shape as shown.

4) Take the above prepared poli cover in one hand and reverse it on our hand and then spread it on hot tawa. If you are using butter paper or banana leaf then directly place it on tawa leave it for a second and then remove banana leaf. 

5) Add ghee on and around poli and fry it for few seconds, later turn it other side and fry till it changes color both sides.

6) Puran poli is ready, take it into plate. Repeat the same process for remaining, serve it hot by adding lots of ghee on it 😋😍.
