Warki Poori is a flaky layered poori that tastes so sinful with any side dish. The layers are separated by a paste of rice flour and ghee and make a wonderful dish.
I remembered seeing a Varki Poori and I twisted the dish name to make sure it suits Warki. I made this along with another dish and everybody loved this so much. So much so that Konda wanted this to be repeated and I kept some dough just for her sake.
All of us enjoyed and I would surely be making it again.
Warki Poori is my choice for W in the AtoZ Flatbreads and More, where I am making AtoZ Indian Flatbreads. If you are keen on knowing what's W in AtoZ Dosa Varieties.

That looks gorgoeus Valli...it is a new technique for me and I got to revisit to understand it properly. Awesome pick....so tempting!

I did Warqi paratha and you picked a puri. Butt he richness is the key here. Deep fried foods are very popular with the kids but I tried to limit them this series. These pictures look very tempting and my little one looking over y shoulder says that I should have made these puris too 🙂
vaishalisabnani says
Warqi pooris look amazing , the layers are showing up so well . Served with some chole or Aaloo Sabzi it would be such a treat .
I am amazed at the variations of warqi paratha / poori , must try all of them . We should have a theme where we make one thing in different ways .
gayathriraani says
I made the warqi paratha once for a celebration and loved it to the core. Deep frying will make it more delicious and would be a rich dish. With some spicy paneer side it would be amazing.
