     Mangalore Buns or banana poori -a sweet, beautifully puffed poori a special breakfast/Snack item in the state of karnataka.When you are not familiar with mangalore buns it may be confusing and misleading ,its not like baked yeast buns but are leavened with baking soda and deep fried.

     Mangalore - I have never been to mangalore even though i stayed at Bangalore for few years, its a kind of very nice place with coast,mountains.Like its neighbouring state kerala,mangalore cuisine  include lots of coconut and curry leaves.
    These pooris are very easy to make apart from its rest time.It means that sweet banana pooris  can't be made instant,it has to be leavened for 6-7 hours to get a nice texture.Making them with wheat flour taste like regular poori with some sweetness.It can also be made with all purpose flour.If you have over ripe bananas then don't look back make these mangalore buns and enjoy them for snack or breakfast.

     Because of the sweetness from the overripe banana this poori is liked by kids especially.My daughter was eating the poori as is,But we had it with spicy coconut chutney.We love less sweet buns, so i added less sugar while making this banana poori.Adjust the sugar as per your taste.The pooris were not oily at all after all the resting time and with bananas, yippee!!!! from my side.
If you always have over ripe bananas you can also make unniyappam or eggless banana cake in pressure cooker.
     Roll the mangalore buns thicker to get a fluffy poori.Also press them in the middle ,after you slide in to the hot oil.I was in a hurry preparing for guest so not bothered about the fluffiness.2 Kele poori and Dates or Chocolate milkshake makes a filling breakfast or Snack.
