In the list of Indian desserts that can have you salivating at the name itself, puran poli ranks on top. A sweet flatbread (puran) with a filling (poli) of flavoured, mashed dal, puran poli is particularly popular in Maharashtra and Gujarat, especially during Ganesh Chaturthi. Turning this stuffed flatbread into pinwheels makes it a fusion, festive treat that’s easier to carry and consume.
