GLUTEN FREE POORI

Unlike the traditional poori which is made using a whole wheat flour, this recipe uses a gluten free flour and contains a fair amount of fiber. Since the preparation method involves deep frying, it must be avoided by individuals who are trying to loose weight, diabetics, heart patients, and people with liver problems.
