Now add water little by little to form a soft dough. Heat oil in a kadai for deep frying.



Roll out thick string from the dough with the help of your hands. Just bring the ends together and press them so that they resemble a ring. Leave this work to the kids and they are supposed to have a field day. Deep fry them in oil but have patience while doing so and fry them over medium flame so that they get cooked till the centre.
