Health Benefits
Puran Poli contains way more nutritional value than any other sweet you generally consume. It contains the goodness of lentils such as chana dal (Bengal gram), which is a good source of fibre and folate apart from Vitamins A, B and D.

Also, if you opt this healthy version than note that Jaggery is surprisingly effective as an aid for weight loss. This is because jaggery is a rich source of potassium, which is a mineral that helps in the balance of electrolytes as well as building muscles and boosting metabolism.

Puran Poli Recipe
·        Form soft dough using whole wheat flour, turmeric powder, salt and ghee.
·        Stuffing: mix cooked chana dal, jaggery, ghee, nutmeg powder, cardamom powder, and fennel powder. Cook this in pan till jaggery is dissolved.
·        Make stuffed paratha using the dough and stuffing on heavy bottom griddle.
