Best eaten within 10 minutes of frying for maximum crispness and puff. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📲 JOIN THE COMMUNITY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📢 WhatsApp Channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaAaK9SJZg48hlXV4I3l 📸 Instagram: @deepakskitchen 📘 Facebook: @deepakskitchen 🐦 Twitter/X: @deepakskitchen ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎵 MUSIC ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Background music: the background music is created by Suno AI ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If Amma's masterclass helped you make perfect pooris, please share this video with one person who struggles with pooris.
