Tired of eating the same old fried snacks? Get yourself a break from the regular kachoris try these flavorful, deep fried delicacy stuffed with green peas. Though using wheat flour entirely is a healthier substitute to the all-purpose flour, I recommend not to substitute if you want to enjoy the authentic taste of these Matar Pooris.

Serve these matar stuffed puris hot with tomato ketchup or chutney or enjoy it as a whole.
