Bedmi Poori the Punjabi Style Puri Recipe is made with urad dal paste. With the spices and masalas we use, it makes for a delicious Sunday Breakfast. The side dishes served with it make a complete meal.
I have already many different Bedmi Pooris shared, this recipe is different from the rest, and I adapted mine from here. I had made it for our Sunday Breakfast and when I make Pooris, I have to make Chana Masala as Chinnu likes only that.
So I planned in such a way that I tried a Punjabi version of chole masala along with Lasooni Moong Dal for the whole platter. Since all thalis need a sweet, I made the Kesar Seviyan Kheer. On the whole, it was a very delicious experience.
Bedmi Poori is part of the Punjabi Bedmi Puri Nasta Thali shared today. In C4AS, it's a traditional Bengali paratha.

I love these kind of spicy pooris over plain ones, I have figured out recently. 🙂 The flavorful pooris must have paired well with your side dishes.

My friend also makes them almost the same way. Loving all the varieties of pooris.
