Heat ghee or oil for deep frying ghewar in a flat and heavy-bottomed vessel of approximately 6-7 cm height. Fill it with ghee or oil half way.

When the oil is hot enough, pour 2 tablespoons of the batter in the centre of oil from the height. It will sizzle up, so be careful. Wait for a minute. When all foam settles down pour 2 tablespoons of batter again in the centre of oil.
