Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a non-stick pan, add coriander seeds, coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, fennel powder, garam masala powder, and salt and mix well and saute for 2 minutes add little water to avoid overcooking, Add soaked moong daal, ½ half cup water, dry mango powder, besan and chat masala mix well and cook till moong daal is fully cooked
  2. When the daal mixture becomes dry, transfer it into another bowl and let it cool.
  3. Preheat oven to 180° C or Air fryer for 3 minutes
  4. Put refined flour in a bowl, add salt, baking powder, ghee, and carom seeds and mix well. Add sufficient oil/ghee so they hold a shape in palm. Now use water to knead into a stiff dough. Cover the bowl with a cloth and rest the dough for 20 minutes.
  5. Divide the dough into equal portions and shape it into balls. Apply a little oil to each ball, press them slightly and roll out into small puris with the edges being thinner than the center. Place some of the daal mixtures in the center, bring them together and press to seal.
  6. Press slightly and roll into small puris ensuring that the filling is evenly spread.
  7. Grease a baking tray, place the kachoris in it, brush them with a little ghee, and bake in the preheated oven at 200° C for about 15 minutes or at same temperature in Air fryer for 10 minutes but keep checking after every 5 minutes or till the kachoris are cooked and golden.
  8. Finally, arrange them on a serving plate and serve hot with tamarind chutney and chopped onions.
