Roll out the pooris

Dough is ready, grease your hands with some ghee and knead it again. Make small lumps from the dough. With this much dough 16 to 17 dough balls can be prepared. Take one dough ball and roll out into 2.5 to 3 inch diameter. Now place 1 tsp stuffing over this rolled poori, lift the dough from all sides and close well. Flatten the stuffed dough ball with your palm and place it over a plate. Likewise stuff rest of the dough balls as well. 

Fry the pooris

Heat enough oil in a wok. Take one stuffed dough balls and roll out it gently. Now slide it into hot oil and fry on medium flame until it gets golden brown in color. Drain out the fried pooris and place it over plate covered with absorbent paper. Likewise roll out each stuffed dough ball and fry.
