Add Oil to the flour and mix until it appears like coarse meal. Add water to form a soft but not sticky dough. Kneed dough for 5 mins and let it rest covered for about 15-30 mins. Divide the dough into 16-18 pcs. portions and make round balls. Flatten the balls slightly and on floored surface roll into thin rounds to the thickness of a penny. Place the rolled puris in a single layer on a news paper or a wax paper. Cover it with another paper until it is ready to fry. Heat oil in a skillet or wok until hot, about 375 to 400 degrees. Add one puri at a time to the oil. Gently apply pressure on the puri with a slotted spoon and let it rise to the surface. It starts puffing up at this point.
