Description

Kachori pastry is stuffed with spicy peas and deep fried for an indulgent Indian street food treat.

Method

Step 1 of 3

Heat a tablespoon of the oil in a large pan on medium high heat and cook the onions for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger paste and chilli and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the cumin, ground coriander, garam masala and lemon juice and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the peas and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and roughly mash with a fork. Stir in the fresh coriander and set aside.

Step 2 of 3

Add the flour to a large bowl and add the rest of the oil and 140ml of water. Mix until you have a smooth dough. Rest, covered for 15 minutes. Divide the dough into 15 pieces and flatten into discs. Place a spoonful of pea filling in the middle of each and seal the edges around it. Roll into balls, flatten into discs and set aside.

Step 3 of 3

Heat oil in a large, deep pan. Drop the dough into the oil carefully, working in batches. Deep fry for 1-2 minutes on each side until crisp, golden and puffed up. Drain on kitchen paper and serve with mango chutney.
