Hi Friends,

The festive season is around so today we will make daal ki kachori and here goes the recipe...

DAAL KI KACHORIS:

Soak dhuli urad daal overnight and grind it in a mixer. In a pan heat some  oil and add heeng powder, ground saunf and  ground daal with salt and mirchi powder...fry well and then add garam masala and aamchur powder in it  and your stuffing is ready.

Take maida and add little salt and enough oil to give it bread crumb like  consistency. Kneed this maida with water and leave it for about 10 minutes.

Make small balls of the maida and stuff it with daal mixture. Deep fry on medium heat and your kachoris are ready.

These kachoris go great with dry masala aaloos and khatti meethi chutney made with Imli( Tamarind) and Khajoor (Dates)...I am sure you can make this dry aaloo sabzi of you choice and chutney too but in case you want me to share these recipes, I will do so in my further recipes.I always look forward to your suggestions and requests.

TRICK:To avaoid sticking of ground daal paste in ur pan, you can make daal bhajiys with salt and  mirchi power in it ...once cool, you mash it well...add garam masala, heeng powder, roasted ground saunf, aamchur powder in it...this trick was invented by my mother and we used to eat some bhajiyas with chutney too.

Happy cooking...
