Masala Bhatura recipe | spiced punjabi bhatoora



Bhaturas are leavened puris served with Chole. They are soft and spongy and must be enjoyed while they are hot or else they become chewy.

 This recipe is a different variation that uses potatoes to add softness to the bhaturas and a blend of other ingredients to flavour them.
