Tips / Note:
1. Rava Suji (semolina) helps to enhance and produces a crispy texture. Moreover, it keeps the Puri Puffed for a longer time.
2. By Adding Sugar to the Puri during the Kneading stage, it will enhance the Golden-Brown color of the Triangle Puri.
3. In order for better organization so that the Puri’s don’t stick, you can roll out all the Triangle Puri’s and place them on a Parchment Paper Lined Tray. It will be easy for you to Fry the Triangle Puri or any Shape Puri by simultaneously placing them in the Hot Oil.
4. Homemade Puri is at its best when served Hot & right out of the Hot Oil. Otherwise the Puri will deflate over time.
5. Please avoid staking your Puri’s but rather place the Puri’s next to each other to keep them Puffed up.
