Tips :
- By grating we avoid having any lump in the dough.
- Boiled Potatoes already have some amount of moisture,so add Water accordingly.
- Avoid using dry flour while rolling out puri’s,which can make puri hard.
- To make crispy puri’ s after they puff up continue frying over low heat.
- Crispy Puri’s remain puffed up for longer time.
- Don’t fry your puri’ s in too hot Oil they will get instantly burnt.
- If temperature of Oil is not right or Oil is less in your Kadhai,your Puri won’t puff up.
- Don’t over crowd your Kadhai while frying.
