- After the resting time, make 4 big balls out of the dough
- Flatten each ball on a floured surface
- With a rolling pin, flatten the dough to make a big circle, just like you would make a chapati but much bigger
- Dont make the circle too thin or else the pooris won't Puff up
- Now take a knife and cut the circle as shown in the pic
- In a skillet, add oil for deep frying and place it on medium high flame
- When the oil turns nice and hot, add each piece into the oil
- Remove the Pooris on a kitchen napkin to drain out any excess oil
- Follow these steps to utilise all the dough
- If you do not wish to make pooris of all the dough, place the remaining dough in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator. You can keep it until the next day. You can also make chapatis out of the same dough
