Procedure

Take a small round steel katori (bowl). Grease it with oil from outer side. Take one puri, and stick it on outer side of katori so that puri will get the shape of katori. Prees neatly. Heat oil in kadai for deep frying. Put this katori with puri in oil. When puri will get little cooked….the katori will get separated from the puri. Take out the katori and fry the puri till it gets golden brown. Repeat the procedure for remaining puris.
