To check if the oil is at the right temperature or no, drop a small portion of dough in the oil. If it comes up quickly, the oil is too hot and this would brown the urad dal poori quickly. If it takes a lot of time, the oil is not hot enough and this would make the urad dal ki puri absorb a lot of oil.
Lightly press the urad dal poori using a slotted spoon to help it puff up. Once it gets golden brown and slightly crispy at the bottom, flip it and fry another side. Deep-fry till it puff-ups or turns golden brown in color from all the sides.
