Start by mixing flour, turmeric, baking powder, salt, adrene jira, and mustard seed in a bowl.

Add soaked and ground doll, garlic, and very peppers to the mixture and mix well.

Add water to the mixture until it reaches the desired consistency; it should be less fluffy and have more doll than flour.

Cover the mixture and let it sit for one hour.

After an hour, shape the mixture into small balls for the polari.

Heat oil in a pan until hot.

Fry the shaped polari in the hot oil until golden brown, then remove and set aside.

In the same oil, add mustard seed, black pepper, and adrene jira and let them sizzle.

Mix together turmeric, salt, garam masala, very peppers, garlic, and water to create the masala for the curry.

Add the masala to the pan and cook for a few minutes.

Add the fried polari to the curry and continue cooking for another five minutes.

Cover the pan and add tamarind for sourness, then cover and continue cooking until finished.
