Pumpkin Masala poori- Deep fried savoury Pumpkin bread-Indian Style

Masala poori- Pumpkin is a winter fruit,which can be used in the making of many variety of curries,bakes,cakes and soups, is very rich in fibre so very good to cure constipation,loaded with Iron,maganesium,potassium,rich in Vitamin-A.K and C and much more.

Whole pumpkin have a good  shelf life,so can be brought and stored for a good long time .The dried seeds of pumpkin are also very good for health,as they provides a number of health benfits.so when ever you cook pumpkin ,don’t throw the seeds,instead rub and wash well with enough water,and sun dry the seeds and then roast them in an oven and enjoy .

But as the pumpkin taste blend so many people and children don’t like pumpkin much, so I tried this pumpkin masala poori’which every body liked but no body recognize that these masala poori are made with pumpkin puree.you can also make paratha or chapati with this dough if you want to avoid deep frying.

If you love pumpkin then do check my recipes of -Khatta Metha Kaddu, Pumpkin Raita  post
