Salt to taste
1 tablespoon saffron water
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup chopped jaggery
¼ teaspoon nutmeg powder
½ teaspoon green cardamom powder

3. Add jaggery to cooked split Bengal gram, mix till it melts and cook for 8-10 minutes. Add nutmeg powder and cardamom powder and mix well.
4. Place a puran crusher in another bowl, put the dal mixture and crush well.

6. Divide the dough into equal portions. Make a cavity in the center of each portion, put a portion of puran, seal, shape into balls and slightly flatten.
7. Dust the worktop with some flour and roll out each portion into semi-thick discs.
8. Heat a non-stick pan. Place each puran poli and roast from both sides till golden brown, basting with some ghee.
