oil for frying

🥗Healthier: air fryer

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Air frying reduces oil usage for a lighter dish.

Mix all-purpose flour, semolina, salt, sugar, baking soda, yogurt, and cooking oil together in a bowl.

Add warm water little by little until the dough is not too soggy.

Knead the dough for at least five minutes until soft.

Cover the dough with a bit of oil on top and let it rest in a warm place for up to two hours.

After two hours, mix the dough again and divide it into ten portions.

Cover the portions and start rolling them gently.

Heat oil until very hot, testing with a bit of dough to see if it floats to the surface.

Once the oil is ready, gently press each puri down into the oil.

Fry each puri for about 20-30 seconds, turning them until golden brown.

Drain the oil and continue frying the remaining puris.
