Do this

1

Firmer dough

Same atta, less water than chapati. Should feel tight, not sticky.

2

Rest 10 min, roll small

Palm-sized rounds, thicker than chapati. Use oil, not flour, to prevent sticking.

3

Oil at 180 ยฐC

Test: a pinch of dough should rise immediately with tiny bubbles.

hot oil = puff, cold oil = greasy disk
4

Drop, push, watch it puff

Gently press with a spatula โ€” that's what makes it balloon.

5

Flip once, drain

30 seconds each side. Golden, not brown.
