Mix Maida ( All purpose flour ) and Rava ( small size rava is called chiroti rava) with water, salt and 1 tea spoon of oil into soft dough.  Keep it for 10 minutes.  Now divide dough and  make a ball size. Take a ball size of dough and roll them on the flat surface like chapati. Now take a bottle cap or any small round shape cup and cut the pooris .  Remove the pooris and keep it aside. Repeat the same with the rest of the dough.
Now keep a pan on the fire and  put oil and heat .  When the oil is hot fry small pooris  on low flame.  Fry on both sides till they are brown.  Now remove them from oil and keep it in a plate.  Fry all the pooris in the same way.
