Do you know that if we mix wheat flour with salt, carom seeds, white sesame seeds, chili flakes, and ghee, and then add a little water to make a dough, we can fry it in hot oil? People flip it on both sides in the pan until it becomes golden brown and crispy. This way, you can make very tasty flour kachoris at home.
Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Mix wheat flour, salt, carom seeds, sesame seeds, chili flakes, and ghee in a bowl.
Gradually add water and knead into a soft dough. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan and add fennel seeds, cumin seeds, and mustard seeds. Let them splutter.
Add chopped green chilies and onions. Sauté until onions turn translucent.
Add salt, red chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and dry mango powder. Mix well.
Add namkeen sev and chopped coriander leaves. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes. Let it cool.
Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a small disc.
Place a spoonful of stuffing in the center of the disc. Seal the edges and shape into a round kachori.
Heat oil in a pan and fry the kachoris on medium heat until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Ensure the dough is soft and pliable to avoid cracks while shaping the kachoris.
Do not overstuff the kachoris to prevent them from bursting during frying.
Fry the kachoris on medium heat to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
Can I use all-purpose flour instead of wheat flour?
Yes, you can use all-purpose flour, but wheat flour gives a healthier and slightly nutty flavor.
Can I bake the kachoris instead of frying?
Yes, you can bake them at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, but they may not be as crispy as fried ones.
What can I substitute for namkeen sev?
You can use crushed roasted peanuts or fried gram flour noodles as a substitute.
How do I store leftover kachoris?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
Can I make the stuffing ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the stuffing a day in advance and refrigerate it until ready to use.
