Baked Flat Puri

With masala puri on the menu for a Saturday night dinner, I could either go out and buy puris, or make my own. I could have deep fried them, but my ever supporting hubby said lets bake them (I'm trying to give up deep fried food). So bake them it was. If you want the authentic road side puri taste, I suggest you deep fry them or take the healthy route like me and bake them :)
