  • Now divide the kneaded dough into equal small sized balls.

  • Roll out into circles not too thick not too thin.

  • Heat oil in a kadai until just fume comes out and turn it to the medium flame .

  • Now drop the rolled puri into the oil carefully .

  • Now place the laddle when it tries to float in the oil.so,this makes to puff the puri well.

  • Now turn over and fry until you see the red spots on it.


Note:
