Key Questions Answered

To make Pakpuri, you need maida, semolina, sugar, curd, cardamom, salt to taste, and oil or ghee for frying puris. You can also use wheat flour instead of maida if preferred.

Knead maida, semolina, salt, and curd into a medium-consistency dough and let it rest. Separately, boil sugar with enough water to dissolve it until it reaches a one-string consistency, then mix in cardamom powder.

Roll out the dough into small puris or cut them from a large roti, then fry them in medium-hot oil until golden brown. Immediately place the hot fried puris into the prepared syrup, let them soak for about five minutes, and then remove them.
