My long time mission came to an end. I have successfully made puffs. Look at the pictures it looks promising right. I have made puff pastry before but it was a complete failure and a butter was leaking all the place and it was a complete mess. From that day onwards i stayed away from puff pastry for a while.
But after watching so many videos and so many website. I got a little confident. But when many of my viewers requested me to post this. I got the complete confidence and got into action.

hello mam. i had tried this recepie and this recepie turned out lil. well. the pattis were crip but it does not puffed up i mean it was not flaky. plz tell me were could i had mistaken. i had did everything like you did in ur recepie.
Aarthi
@cheena goyalthe layering of the pastry must have went wrong and also when you bake them, they should be pretty frozen, if it is soft it wont get flaky
