slowly add water and keep mixing the flour to form a hard-soft dough.
If the water is added at one go the flour might become either hard or too soft.
The dough should be in the consistency of chapathi dough.
Once the dough is made add oil to it and knead it well.

make the dough into small balls .
Roll out each ball by adding generous amount of maida flour so as to not stick.
Roll into flat circles and keep them aside.

Now take a knife and cut the rolled out chapati vertically with 1 inch space..
once the chapathi is cut vertically take each cut slice and cut it horizantally in some angle not straight.
This will result in diamond shape cuts ready to be fried.
