How to make Khasta Kachori Recipe

Dough

  • Do not knead the dough. It should be very soft.
  • Cover the dough and let it sit at least fifteen minutes

Filling

  • Grind the moong dal dry, almost to a powder.
  • Mix 1 tablespoon of oil into the ground dal in a frying pan and roast over medium heat for two to three minutes, or until the dal changes color slightly.
  • Stir continuously.
  • Turn off the heat.
  • Add all the spices and mix well.
  • Let the mixture cool off.
  • Add two tablespoons of warm water and mix well.
  • Let sit ten minutes, covered with a damp cloth

Make Kachories

  • Take the dough and knead it for minutes. Divide the dough into twelve equal parts.
  • Take one part of the dough and with your fingers flatten the edges to form a three-inch circle, leaving the center a little thicker than the edges.
  • Mold the dough into a cup and place one teaspoon of the filling in the center.
  • Pull the edges of the dough to wrap the dal filling.
  • Proceed to make all twelve balls.
  • Let the filled balls sit for three to four minutes before rolling.
  • Set the filled balls on a surface with the seams facing up.
  • Using the base of your palm, slowly flatten them into circles about three inches in diameter.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat frying pan should have about one inch of oil. To check if oil is ready put a little piece of dough in the oil. It should sizzle, and come up very slow.
  • Fry them on medium-low heat. After they start to puff, slowly turn them over. Fry until golden-brown on both sides.
  • If the kachoris are fried on high heat, they will get soft and will not be crispy.
  • Kachoris can be stored for at least a week in an airtight container.
