Did you know? These flaky, layered puris are Rajasthani festival food. "Nagori" refers to the delicate, almost translucent layers achieved through skilled rolling. Modern versions might use multigrain flour. Traditionally served with aloo sabzi or kadhi. The ghee frying creates irresistible aroma. Perfect for Diwali or Holi feasts. The puris puff up like balloons when fried correctly. Best eaten hot before they lose crispness. A labor of love worth every bite.
