Make Traditional Hing Kachori at Home in 7 Easy Steps

Step 1

Mix flour, salt, and oil, then gradually add water to form a soft, pliable dough. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Heat a little oil in a pan, add hing, fennel seeds, and coarsely ground urad dal. Sauté until aromatic. Add coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook until the mixture is dry.

Step 3

Divide the dough into small balls and the filling into equal portions.

Step 4

Flatten a dough ball, place the filling in the center, and seal it by pinching the edges together.

Step 5

Gently roll the stuffed ball into a flat disc, being careful not to tear it.

Step 6

Heat oil in a deep pan on medium heat. Fry the kachoris until golden brown, flipping occasionally.

Step 7

Drain excess oil and serve your crispy hing kachoris with tamarind chutney or spicy potato curry.
