Mix the oil with wheat flour using your palms then mix ground spinach with wheat flour knead a hard dough using water when required.Cover the dough and leave to rest for at least 30 minutes.

Heat the oil in a vessel. Slip the rolled poori into the oil. As soon as it comes up, press the centre gently with a slotted spoon, so that the poori puffs up. Keeping the heat on high, turn it over and fry till light brown on both sides.
