*Additional Notes*

 

If you do not have thermometer to check oil temperature, add a peanut size dough ball in the hot oil. If ball sizzles on contact with oil and appears of oil surface at count of 5 then Oil is perfectly. If it takes longer then 5 seconds or stays at the bottom, oil is not hot enough hot. If dough ball turns brown very quickly then oil is too hot and it will burn your puris.
