This is GREAT! I made these this evening. The only mistake I made was add a little too much of water while kneading this, due to which I had to keep adding both the flours in the ratio mentioned in the recipe. I added 1/4 cup wheat flour plus a handful more of it and 1 cup of maida(all purpose flour). Also, since I had alot of cooking to do, I kept this aside to ferment for 1 hour instead of half. I got a total of 16 puris. One important thing one must take care of while making these puris is their SIZE. I made some big and some small, but when I was at the end, I discovered that the ideal size of these is with a diameter of 2 inches and NOT more. Unfortunately, I made some puris with diameters like 5 or 6 inches in size which is a mistake I wont repeat, I'd swear by that! This recipe is time consuming, but well worth the effort. Your family is so lucky to get these in their tiffin! :)
