Take one dough ball and flatten it with your palm and then roll out in to a poori with 2.5 to 3 inch diameter. Now place 1 tsp stuffing over the poori and lift it from all sides. Now place one clove over the top to seal it and place it in a plate. Like wise prepare all lavang latika. With this dough approx, 20 to 21 lavang latika can be prepared.
