Heat canola oil in a pan over medium to medium-high heat.

Add the fried dukunu to the hot oil.

Fry the dukunu for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.

Use two spatulas to turn the dukunu carefully to avoid splashing hot oil.

Check for a nice golden brown color on both sides.

Break a couple of dukunu in half to show the inside texture.

Serve hot as a snack.
