    • Smear some wheat powder of a flat surface and flatten the small dough balls one-by-one into disc-shaped doughs. Remember not to flatten it too thin or too thick. (Ideally, flatten it as thick as normal poori)
    • Heat 500ml of oil in a wok or pan to approximately 200°C.
    • Once the oil is hot, add the flattened puri into the oil, one at a time. Do not crowd the pan.
    • Remove the puri from oil when it turns to golden brown balls and drains the excess oil using a tissue.
