Heat oil in a pan. Take a tiny portion of the dough and put it into the oil to check whether it is heated appropriately or not. If the dough rises up in few seconds and starts to float the the surface, then the oil is perfectly heated to fry the poori. Now put the poori into the oil. The surface with the dal should be facing the pan while putting it in the pan.
