Masala puri, one of my favourite anytime-munchies, this recipe will surely be an instant hit amongst weight-watchers. Masala puris, which are usually fried, have been modified into this low cal version by baking. You can use these puris to make sev puri, bhel puri or any chaat of your choice.

Healthy, tasty baked puris. Made from whole wheat flour and with only 1/2 tsp oil. Great also to use in bhel or just have with curds.
