After an hour, grease your hands and knead the dough again. Divide it into small parts and roll it to one-inch thickness. Now use a knife to cut down the dough to 1/2 inch. Now take each piece and roll it in diameter of 2 to 3 inches. Put some dry flour onto it and roll it again until it reaches the diameter of 4 to 5 inches.
Now put all of them one over each other over a plate. Now heat oil in a pan. After that, put one Papdi into it. Keep on tossing it until it turns golden brown. After frying, put Papdis on white paper so that excess oil drains out. Now store them in a dry airtight jar. You can now serve it anytime.
