oh wow... absolutely love it...
Extremely crispy and quite addictive rolls.
I love it.... i use ready made sheets. this one is nice :)
Hi,
I tried this recipe today, once I fried the rolls, while the outer layer was fried well, the inside layer of the dough sheet looked like it was still uncooked and raw. I tried to fry for little longer time till the outer layer was dark brown, but still the layer inside looked raw. Can you advice on what could ve gone wrong. I rolled the dough as thin as possible.
Hi, there can be two problems. First after placing the filling in the dough you would have rolled the dough wrapper many times, making the rolls thick and dense. And second is cooking the rolls in right oil temperature, that is oil should be at lowest temperature and not smoking hot. If the oil is smoking hot the outer wrapper gets burnt and inner layer raw. Hope I answered your query, you can always get back to me if you have more doubts. Happy new year.
Hi Mythreyi , thanks for your really quick and prompt response. Like you mentioned, I did roll the wrapper many times, after I noticed that the inside was raw, I fixed that in the remaining rolls and found it was still little bit raw. May be next time, I will try with reduced oil temperature. You have a wonderful website and the recipes are very interesting. Happy New Year to you too.
