Instructions for Date Obattu Recipe (Date Puran Poli)

    1

    To begin making the Date Obattu recipe, first we need to prepare the ingredients required for this recipe.

    2

    Soak dates in 1/2 a cup of hot water for 1-2 hours.

    3

    Grind the almonds to a powder.

    4

    Grind the dry coconut into a thick paste with very little water.

    5

    Now grind the soaked dates mixture without any additional water to a smooth paste.

    6

    Combine date paste, almond powder, coconut paste and jaggery (if using) in a pan and cook for 2-3 minutes.

    7

    Let this mixture cool slightly and shape them into 4 equal sized balls and set aside.

    8

    In mixing bowl add semolina, maida, salt and enough water to make a soft and knead well for 6 to 8 mins and let it rest with a moist cloth covered over it for 1 to 1 and half hours.

    9

    Now knead again briefly and pour enough oil to cover it completely. (If you spread a tiny piece of this mixture with your fingers on a clean surface and lift it up it should not break and you must almost be able to see through it)

    10

    On a sheet of grease-proof paper, smear some oil, pinch a gooseberry sized dough and flatten it with your fingers and place the date ball on it, now cover the ball by stretching the ends of the dough using your fingers and seal it securely.

    11

    Place this dough secured date ball on the greaseproof paper and pat it with your fingers to as thin as possible or thick according to your preference.

    12

    Now transfer this on to a hot tava and peel the paper after 30 seconds. Cook on both sides uncovered by drizzling some oil or ghee.
