Use a pastry cutter to cut thin rectangles from the square. Next, cut the slices of dough into tiny triangles. They should be tiny like namkeen. Deep fry the tiny triangles till they rise like puris. Make sure they have a golden and crispy texture.Next, prepare the seasoning masala. You can either use the magic masala seasoning available in the market or prepare a mint masala at home.
