Dalpuri

Dal puri is a type of flatbread filled with dal originating in South Asian cuisine, with variants eaten in regions with Indian diasporas. The South Asian version is a type of puri, a deep-fried flatbread made of whole wheat flour, and uses dal made of chickpeas or lentils. Its variants are dhalpuri roti in Caribbean cuisine and dholl puri in Mauritian cuisine, both of which instead use white flour and are griddle-baked on a tava. Split peas are a common filling for both variants. Dhalpuri and dholl puri are both wrapped around curry as sandwiches and served as street food. Regions including the Caribbean and Mauritius received Indian indentured labourers during the 20th century, who were largely from the Bhojpuri ethnic group; they introduced their foods and may have made dal puri out of necessity.
