i tried but its not getting cooked from inside and i used maida instead of rice flour

If the oil temperature is too hot, the outer layer will become brown fast, but the inside will be still uncooked. Make sure the temperature of the oil is not very hot. The right temperature is when you drop some dough, it comes up with in few seconds and doesn’t become brown immediately. Also using maida should be fine. Hope this helps!
