Mix flour/maida with sooji(optional), turmeric, salt. Add water,oil and make a dough. Cover and keep aside for 1hr.
Take a ball of dough and spread with hand. Keep a ball of chana mixture and cover with the dough and seal the ends as shown in the picture.
Apply oil to a plastic paper, keep the ready ball on it and roll it like chapathi (The plastic and oil prevents it from sticking). Fry on hot tava till it gets golden brown color.
Serve hot/cold with ghee.
Some tips :
Use milk instead of water for making the maida dough to make pooran polis very soft.
Use Toor dal along with chana dal to make them more thin and soft.
If the chana dal mixture becomes too dry and cannot be made into balls, add some avalakki(thin poha) or 1 tsp rice flour to it.
Use rava and flour in 1:1 proportion to make the outer wrap very soft.
