Rava poori or Poori made with Sooji and wheatflour is a popular breakfast in India. The soft puffy poori does not soak up oil and is quite easy to prepare. Usually, people prepare Rava Poori with Maida and Sooji, but I have opted for wheat flour as it is healthier and it came out fantastic. I usually make Poori with wheat flour alone, which gives softer pooris, but this Rava poori is much easier to prepare and the Rava makes it crispier.
