Cooking Instructions

Tips & Secrets

  • Using a generous amount of ghee 'Moin' in the dough is mandatory for achieving the most professional-grade authentic flakiness.
  • Ensuring the kachoris are fried on very low heat for a long duration provides the absolute secret to achieving superior professional-grade uniform crispness throughout.
  • The addition of a little roasted gram flour to the stuffing prevents moisture and provides the essential professional-grade binding lift.
  • Always press the center of the kachori slightly before frying specifically to ensure the signature professional-grade even expansion is maintained.
