Directions
2. Divide into about 20 portions. Roll out each portion into a round size of about four inch diameter.
3. Heat oil to very hot in a deep frying pan. Fry one at a time with light tapping so that it puffs, turn over till light golden. Drain and remove.
4. Serve hot with any curry or can be taken as it is.
5. Note:-Important points to note are - kneading and frying. Too much kneading with oil will make very crunchy luchis. But luchis should be soft and puffed. Oil should be very hot otherwise it will not puff. It takes only about 30 to 35 seconds for each luchi to puff up. Can be made with whole wheat flour (atta), then it is called Poori. Can also be made with equal proportion of Maida and atta.
