Wow! Veena.You're such a perfectionist!...love the way you explain every teeny weeny bit of recipes.Thank you for this lovely one.Stay blessed & generous as always.
Hi Maria! You could order bran online through amazon. Wheat bran can also be added to soups or used for coating fish before frying it. Also, if you get wheat flour by grinding it in the flour mill, then every time you sift the flour, you could collect a little wheat bran from what's left on the sieve.
Hi Ma'am, thank you so much for sharing this! We tried this with both the Oven and Tava, and got super results : ) we are delighted.. thanks esp for the details: (differences in yeast, how to figure out if the dough has enough water,) this gave the much needed confidence
Hi. Thank you for sharing the recipie of this amazing bread. I love poee and miss eating it as it is not available where I live. Please can you tell me where one can source the bran?
I like this simple recipe . I still have to try .I don't Know from where to get wheat bran .I have to find out as I love poii any time any day and goan food too . I am Punjabi married to goan . I am blessed .
Hi Sheena! Thanks a lot for your appreciation. If you make chapatis at home from wheat flour ground in a local chakki, here's what you could do. Each time you sift the flour for making chapatis, you'll find the wheat bran on the sieve. Collect this in an airtight container and keep this in the fridge. In just around 8 - 10 days, you'll have enough wheat bran for this recipe. Otherwise, you could buy it on Amazon. All the best!
You're most welcome, Sneha. Have both the rods on. But you may or may not use the fan. With the fan on the baking time will be a little shorter. Say, between 5 and 6 minutes.
@@vikimittal2150 , maybe it got baked for a longer time, or at a higher temperature. If it sticks slightly, that's alright. Otherwise, next time, lightly grease the parchment paper.
Superb Video your patience M'am is infective, so full of Grace. I want to try this, any possibility to avoid Maida and use Barley flour instead. Cheers😊
Thanks, Latha, for your kind appreciation. But I'm sorry, this recipe cannot be modified in any way. However, you could try decreasing the maida slightly by 1/4 cup and increasing the whole wheat flour by 1/4 cup.
Thank you mam .I will try .Can I freeze or refrigerate as I'm alone.can only have 1 at a time. Love Goa and been there 3 times. Love from South Africa.
You're so welcome, Sushila. I suggest you bake all the breads at one time. Then store the extra ones in the refrigerator. When you want to have them, heat the bread for a few SECONDS in the microwave oven, NOT MORE. Or else heat them up carefully on a pan on a very low flame. Hope this helps. My love to you, all the way to South Africa! Take care.
Yes, Tanaya, you can keep the proofed dough in the fridge for a few days. But cover the bowl in which you keep the dough well with plastic wrap, or else, put the dough in an airtight container and then refrigerate it.
Stella, you could try making the poees on the tawa like I've shown in the video or by placing a stand inside a kadai , covering this, and then heating it on the gas (like how we bake cakes without an oven).
You can buy it through amazon or if you use wheat flour at home that is ground in the flour mill (not readymade atta), you could sift the flour and collect the bran.
Lavina, I don't think there could be a perfect substitute for wheat bran. But you could use coarsely ground oats or corn meal (makai ka atta - not cornstarch or cornflour).
Merilyn, it's available on amazon. Also, if you use atta at home that's ground in a chakki for making chapatis, you could sift the flour daily and separate the bran. In around 10-15 days, you could collect enough for this recipe.
Diana, wheat bran is available on amazon. But if you use wheat flour for chapatis ground in a mill (not ready-made wheat flour) you could also collect wheat bran at home each time you sift the flour before making chapatis. Also, as a substitute for wheat bran, you could use coarsely ground oats.
Sofia, it's available on amazon. Also, if you use wheat flour ground in a chakki for making chapatis, you could sift the flour daily and separate the bran. After around 15 - 20 days, you would have enough bran for this recipe.
It's available online, Larry. But as a substitute, you could use coarsely ground oats. Also, if you use wheat flour ground in a mill for making chapatis (not readymade wheat flour), you could also collect bran at home every time you sift the flour.
@@premilavaz5835 , a few questions for you. Did the yeast froth when you tried to activate it? Frothing indicates the yeast is active. The water used for blooming the yeast should be only luke warm. Hot water will kill the yeast. Checking that the yeast is active is an important step. If the yeast is not active, the poee or any bread will not rise. Also, did the poee dough rise to double the volume after the first rising? You have to keep the dough in a warm place to help it rise. The same goes for the second rising. If your dough didn't rise after the first rising, you either didn't give it the slight warmth it requires or the yeast was not active. If both the risings take place perfectly, the poee will bake perfectly too.
Oh... sorry to hear that. But Mahima, don't be disheartened. There are many recipes like this (including our daily chapatis) that you may not get right the very first time. You'll have to pin point where you didn't follow the recipe exactly or the steps you didn't get right. Just like with chapatis, if the poees don't puff up, they'll be hard. You have to get the kneading of the dough right and also the pressure you apply on the dough discs while rolling them out should be just right. Roll them out with light but even pressure. Another reason why poees could become hard could be that your yeast didn't work properly. Do try one more time after watching my video very carefully at every stage of the process.

Maam Can this dough after proofing, be stored for a day or two in the fridge and used when needed, how to go about with the extra dough
Yes, Tanaya, you can keep the proofed dough in the fridge for a few days. But cover the bowl in which you keep the dough well with plastic wrap, or else, put the dough in an airtight container and then refrigerate it.
Superb
Thank you, Sheena, for your appreciation.
I love poeee
Me too, John. Poees are not only tasty, they're more nutritious than regular bread too.
I'm coming in December where ur location
Where n which place in Goa so I can visit
@@johnfernandez4371 , poees are available in every goan bakery, even the small ones in any village.
Where can i get wheat bran from in mspusa?
I'm sorry, Sofia. Since I don't live in Goa, I can't help you out here. Perhaps you could enquire in any local bakery?
Sister Veena what if we dont have an oven then hw to mk
Stella, you could try making the poees on the tawa like I've shown in the video or by placing a stand inside a kadai , covering this, and then heating it on the gas (like how we bake cakes without an oven).
How to make kadak pao or brun
Olinda, I don't have a recipe for this, but it could need a high baking temperature to form that hard crust.
Hi
Can you tell me if whole wheat flour is the same as atta?
Yes, it is. Thanks for getting in touch.
Where will I get the wheat bran
You can buy it through amazon or if you use wheat flour at home that is ground in the flour mill (not readymade atta), you could sift the flour and collect the bran.
What else can I use to replace bran please
Lavina, I don't think there could be a perfect substitute for wheat bran. But you could use coarsely ground oats or corn meal (makai ka atta - not cornstarch or cornflour).
@@PataCake thank you 😊
@@LavinaSolly, you're most welcome.
Where to get wheat bran
Merilyn, it's available on amazon. Also, if you use atta at home that's ground in a chakki for making chapatis, you could sift the flour daily and separate the bran. In around 10-15 days, you could collect enough for this recipe.
Can we use it without wheat bran?
Yes, you can. But wheat bran not only gives the bread its characteristic appearance, it also adds to the fibre content of the bread.
👌wow looks amazing ❤️ delicious recipe 👍 thanks for sharing 😀 I am your new friend 🙋🏻♀️ stay connected plz for new and delicious recipe ❤️❤️❤️

@@jennitamonteiro9728 , you're most welcome.
I want to prepare Only Wheat flour,
It's OK or maida is must.
Vandana, whole wheat flour doesn't have enough gluten to make the bread light. So it's important to use a mix of maida and whole wheat flour.
@@PataCake Thanks Tai,

Love you.

Why doesn't the poee rise?
If you've kneaded the dough correctly, the yeast is active, and the temperature control is right, the poee will rise.
Kneaded as explained and it's warm but yet they didn't rise. Any other reason?
@@premilavaz5835 , a few questions for you. Did the yeast froth when you tried to activate it? Frothing indicates the yeast is active. The water used for blooming the yeast should be only luke warm.

In Goa, I had asked a powder for the recipe and one ingredient he gave was toddy…can that be incorporated?
Shama, I haven't heard of toddy being used to make Poees.
Vohh
Thanks, Tom, for your appreciation.
I'm also from Goa 🤣
Our Goa is a lovely place. Green and serene.
I have a strong feeling that you are a RC.. pl confirm
Yes, I am.

Do check the yeast activation. It should be full frothy and bubbly. I've also failed a lot of times , but this recipe is amazing .
@patacake so out of the entire flour ratio I have included some ragi flour atta 100 gms and 25 gms ragi. Hope it'll come out fine
Superb
