puri
Indian fried bread
Puri is a deep-fried Indian bread that puffs up into a hollow ball when cooked.
Made from unleavened whole wheat dough, puris are typically served with curries, chutneys, or potato dishes: We ordered puris with chana masala.
They're eaten fresh and hot, often at breakfast or as part of festive meals.
