KHASTA DAL KACHORI RECIPE

• Soak the beans in water overnight then rinse and drain.
• Sift the flour and gradually add enough water to make soft dough. Cover the dough with damp cloth and leave for 30 minutes.
• Grind the drained beans with the chili powder, salt and spices to make stuffing. Mix well and divide it into 16 equal portions.
• Divide the dough into 16, using wet hands, and smear each portion with a little oil.
• Flatten and roll out into 2inch round.
• Wrap one portion of stuffing in each round and roll into a smooth ball, using greased hands.
• Flatten and roll into a 3-4 inch round.
• Heat plenty of oil in a deep frying pan or a kadhai.
• Now lift the rolled kachori and carefully slip it into the hot oil.
• Immediately start flickering hot oil over the top of it with a spatula so that it will swell up like a ball.
• This should take only a few seconds. Flip the kachori over and cook the other side until golden brown.Serve the dal kachori hot with chutney.
