  2. Add 2 tbsp of oil and mix well.
  3. Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth and soft dough.
  4. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.

  6. Roll each ball into a small circle (about 4 inches in diameter) on a floured surface.
  7. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
  8. Carefully slide the rolled puri into the hot oil. It should puff up immediately.

Tips

  • Ensure the oil is hot enough for the puris to puff up.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan while frying.
  • You can add a pinch of baking soda to the dough for extra puffiness.
