- The prepared dough shouldn't be too soft or hard.
- You can manage the consistency by adding a few teaspoons of rice flour or water as needed.
- Take a small amount of dough and try rolling it, if you can roll then the consistency is good. Add a teaspoon of oil to it and keep it aside.
For preparing Thattai:
- In a pan add oil as required for deep fry and let it heat at high flame for a few minutes.
- Take a piece of banana leaf/plastic sheet/zip lock cover, grease them with oil.
- Grease your palm as well and take a small amount of dough, roll them into a ball and press them flat in the shape of Thattai on the greased banana leaf.
- Do not press them too thin or too thick.

- Once the oil is hot enough, lower the flame to medium and drop these small disc shaped dough into the oil, one by one.
