Can we do the prep &keep the dough ready in fridge to fry it next day ??
Great question Kavi. Yes, that’s one of the things I do when I have family or friends visiting. I serve this quickly as an appetizer 🙂
Can we bake these instead of deep frying ? If yes what temperature and how long ?
Hey Siri, yeah you can bake them at 350F for around 25 mins.
