Hi shilpa, i have tried many of yur recipes and its wonderfully come out.As regards the bangalore masala puri, i got this recipe from a gadiwala in vijaynagar where i stay.Here it is,
ingredients{for 4 or 5 people}
grated coconut- 1 cup
coriander seeds -3 to 4 tsps
jeera- 3 tsps
pepper corns- 3tsps
lavang- 2 or 3
cinnamon – 2 0r 3 pieces
marati moggu-2 or 3
jakayi -little(crush and powder it) jakayi and japatre are easily available in all provision shops.
japatre- little
red chilli powder- 2tsps
sugar- 2 tsps – add while boiling the gravy
salt to taste
Grind the above ingredients using water to paste
Cook 1 cup of thuar dal in a pressure cooker and peas separately.Cool the dal and and grind it smoothly.
Take a thick bottom pan, put the masala paste, add water and start boiling to obtain a thick gravy.Now add the grinded thuar dal to obtain thick consistency.Cool it and now take a steel siever and put the boiled masala to extract a smooth gravy.
Add cooked peas to the smooth gravy and boil for a little while. Now the masala for masala puri is ready.if you want to increase the quantity of the gravy, just add water to the sieved remains and boil again and repeat the process of sieving.
Serve with puris , sev.onion, tomato and carrot.
I have tried and its come out well exactly like the gadiwalas do.

I tried your recipe and it tasted good. I wanted to know the recipe of the Masale Puri that you get in Mysorian Gaadis. During my visit to Mysore, I asked a Gaadi owner to give me the recipe. I made him cook it in my house in order to make sure that he gave me the correct recipe. It was right. I cooked it myself and had to spend three days to experiment with the ingredients to get the proportions right. I am so glad to have found the recipe along with the right proportions. I live in Corvallis, Oregon and Masale puri brings so much joy to me in this otherwise boring and depressing town.

Interesting to see that no website has the recipe. Is it possible to patent it?
