Urad Dal Ki Kachori

Kachoris, i came to know about this stuffed flaky deepfried breads only before few years, when i prepared them with onions  for Indian cooking challenge.Weather is getting worst here, before a week its was too hot and suddenly its raining and the climate is completely dull and chilled. Obviously we need some crispy deep fried beauties for our snacks to munch with a cup of tea. I got hooked to whole black urad dals since i tried them in medhu vadas and couldnt stop myself in adding them in my recent dishes.When Kalyani announced this month's magic mingle with all purpose flour and coriander leaves, i thought immediately of making some kachoris with black urad dals.

Coming to this kachori, they turned out super crispy with a wonderful,nutritious filling. We couldnt stop ourselves having these kachoris, i prepared almost 10 kachoris and they vanished very much quickly once i finished deepfrying. You doesnt even need any side dish to have them, the spiciness of the filling itself suits prefectly to enjoy with a cup of tea. Just imagine having this kachori with a cup of masala chai while its raining outside, mouthwatering na.Sending to my own event CWS-Black Gram guest hosted by Shri, Kid's Delight - Wat Kids Love For Summer guest hosted by Smitha,event by Srivalli. and Street Party guest hosted by Shama,event by Jagruti..



3cups All purpose flour/Maida
1tbsp Oil
Salt
Oil for deepfrying

For stuffing:
1cup Whole black urad dal
1no Onion (chopped)
2nos Green chillies (chopped)
1/4cup Coriander leaves (chopped)
1tsp Chaat masala
1/2tsp Ajwain seeds
1/2tsp Cumin seeds
Salt
Oil

Soak the whole urad dals fro atleast 6hours or overnite,while preparing drain the water and grind as coarse paste (dont add water not even a drop).

Heat enough oil, let crack the ajwain seeds and cumin seeds, add immediately the chopped onions,chopped green chillies and saute until the onions turns transculent.

Now add the urad dal paste,chaat masala and salt, cook everything in simmer until the filling turns dry. Finally add the chopped coriander leaves and put off the stove.

Meanwhile knead a soft and stiff dough with maida,oil and water and keep aside for half an hour.

Make medium sized rolls from the  dough..roll gently with the rolling pin.

Place 2 tsps of the urad dal filling in the center of the rolled dough.Cover the filling with the dough by slowly stretching it over the filling. Seal the ends and remove excess dough,roll gently again with rolling pin.

Meanwhile heat some oil for deep frying,fry the kachoris in batch in medium high flame.Cook for about 6 to 10 minutes till they gets a golden brown.

Serve and enjoy warm.

J'ignorais l'existence de lentilles noires. Il faudra qu'on fasse les courses ensemble un jour dans les magasins indiens. Tu pourras ainsi tout m'expliquer.
Ces petits beignets doivent être délicieux.
See soon
