  4. Break into 15 equal portions, shape into balls and flatten it.
  5. Roll it out into 3 to 4 inch circles with thin-medium thickness.
  6. Don’t make it too thin else it will come out crispy.
  7. You can roll 4 to 5 puris before you start frying, but do not roll all the puris at once or they will start drying and not puff.
  8. Alternatively heat oil for deep frying.
  9. To check if oil is hot enough drop a small piece of dough into the oil. Dough should fry up immediately and come to the surface.
  10. Place the puri in the frying pan, with a skimmer, splash some hot oil over the top of puri. Cook about 40 seconds.
  11. Turn over the puri with skimmer, rub top of puri with skimmer, it helps puff up puri with steam.
