Suggestions: 

• Do not knead the refined flour dough too much, just bind it.
• Fry the balushahi in less hot oil, If it is too hot, they won't puff up. 
• If the sugar is unclear then the sugar syrup becomes unclear too. Add 1 tbsp of milk to it. As the sugar syrup boils, the impurities will flaot over the syrup. Take it out with a spoon, the syrup will come out clean.
• You can make Balushahi, even without saffron strands. 
• You can fry the balushahi in oil instead of ghee if desired.
