Urad dal kachori

Urad Dal kachori:-

This recipe of Urad dal kachori is not as same as Khasta Kachori. It is also not as soft as Puri. It has both softness and crispiness. You can easily make it for your breakfast. You can serve it with aloo sabji.
I like to eat this kachori with aloo Dum. We often made this kachori during occasions.

After that drain all the water from dal and pit it in the mixture grinder without adding any amount of water or small amount of water like 2 to 3 spoon water. Also add a small piece of ginger and 2 pieces of green chilli. It gives you some tikha or spicy flavour. Grind it to a semi paste and do not make a fine paste. 

Step:6 Remove the paste and keep it aside in a separate bowl or plate. 

Step:7 Heat ½tbsp ghee in a pan and then add ½tsp cumin seeds and saute it for just some seconds. Add 1tsp chopped ginger and 1tsp green chilli. Saute till raw aroma of ginger goes away.

Mix it very well and add Urad dal paste to it and mix well and then saute the Urad dal paste. You do not need to put any pressure to the paste while mixing it.

Step:9 Now add salt as per taste and mix it well till it thickens and dries a bit. Consistency of paste should not be liquid it needs to be dry like a dough. Then cool it down. After that make small rounds of Urad dal.

Making Urad dal kachori:-

Step:1 Also make the same number of balls from dough.

Step:2 Spread some oil on the dough ball and roll to a round circle of about 5 to 6 inches in width.

Step:3 Flatten the stuffing and then place it on the dough circle. Pleat and then join the edges bringing them to the center. Press the top. Be careful to seal the edges properly.

Step:4 Again roll into a circle of 5 to 6 inches width. Prepare all kachoris in this way. Keep them in a another plate and cover with a moist kitchen cloth.

Step:5 Now heat oil in a pan or kadhai for deep fryingCheck the oil temperature by adding a tiny piece of dough in it. If it comes steadily and gradually on top, the oil is medium hot and ready for the kachoris to be fried.

Step:6  Gently place the kachoris in the hot oil. Fry at a low-medium or medium flame.
Gently nudge with a slotted spoon, so that they start puffing up. When one side is golden and the oil has stopped spluttering, turn over and fry the other side. 

Step:7 Fry till the second side is also golden and the oil has stopped sizzling. Now place it on a kitchen paper or towel for removing the extra oil from it.
