Chicken Kachori...
This was my first ever attempt to make kachori. I had seen people make kachoris in India so I knew the technique. You can fill these kachoris with almost anything of your choice for e.g. moong daal, aloo-matar, keema, etc etc
Ingredients:
* Chicken (boiled n shredded) 1/2 cup
* Besan/gram flour 3 tbsp
* Whole Dhaniya seeds 1 tsp
* Zeera 1 tsp
* Mustard seeds 1/2 tsp
* Saunf 1/2 tsp
* Black pepper whole 8-10
* Oil
* Maida 1 cup
Procedure:
Crush all the masala into a coarse powder.
Heat 1 tbsp oil, fry masala. Add besan and cook till the raw smell of gram flour evaporates.
Add shredded chicken and cook for a couple of minutes.
Add a couple of spoon of water and make it a hard dough. Let it cool then divide into 7-8 parts.
Knead maida with a tbsp oil, salt and zeera powder.
Divide them into table tennis size of balls.
Take a dough ball, roll it into around four inch diameter roti.
Put one of the chicken masala dough in the centre. Apply water to the sides of roti and gather roti from all the sides so that the masala ball is covered completely with the maida roti. Seal the ball and carefully remove the extra maida.
Flatten the maida ball by hand carefully not to make hole in it.
Deep fry on medium heat till it is golden brown from both sides.
Serve hot with pudina chutney and imli chutney.
