it is commonly believed that, puran poli is native to maharashtra and it belongs to marathi cuisine. however most of them do not know that its also native to karnataka and is commonly refereed as bele obbattu or bele holige. in karnataka, it is prepared with variety of stuffing. the most common one’s are with rava / semolina, chana dal, toor dal, coconut and even mixed dry fruits. but my personal favourite recipe is coconut obbattu and bele obbattu. most commonly i prepare either of them especially during ganesh chaturthi and during maraka sankrathi festival.

  • also blend the stuffing to smooth paste, else it will be difficult to roll holige thinly.
  • furthermore prepare the stuffing just before making holige, else it will turn hard once cooled.
  • additionally, roast the holige with a tsp of ghee for more flavours.
  • finally, holige / obbattu / puran poli stays good for a week or more when refrigerated.
