• Divide the dough in 10 equal parts. Take few drops of Oil on your palm and roll the dough in balls and press it between your palms.

• Roll this dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1-inch circle. If the dough is sticking to the rolling pin, sprinkle some more flour and roll. Keep a spoonfull of filling in the centre and pull the dough from all sides over the filling to cover it completely and seal it.

• Roll this on a lightly floured surface to about 5-inch circle.

• Meanwhile heat the Oil in a pan and deep fry the Pooris.
