This non-fried Suji Kachori is a healthy twist on the classic snack, made with a soft semolina dough and filled with a rich, creamy stuffing of paneer, hung curd, spices, and dry fruits. Cooked in an appe pan instead of deep-frying, these kachoris turn perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, making them a guilt-free and delicious tea-time treat.

Description - Step 1

Creating the Dough

Place a wok or pan on medium heat. Add the water. As the water heats up, add chilli flakes, sesame seeds, chopped coriander, salt, and 1 tbsp of oil. Let this come to a simmer. Lower the heat and slowly pour in the Semolina (Suji) while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Keep stirring until the mixture absorbs all the water and comes together as a soft, singular lump (dough-like consistency). This takes about 2-3 minutes. Remove the dough from the pan and place it on a flat surface/plate. Let it cool slightly (warm to the touch, not hot). Grease your hands with oil, then knead for 1-2 minutes until smooth and pliable.

Plating Instructions

Place the golden, crispy kachoris on a small serving plate or wooden board. Add a tiny bowl of green chutney or sweet chutney on the side. Keep the kachoris slightly spaced out so their round shape stays visible and appealing.

Pairing Instructions

Serve with spicy green chutney, sweet tamarind chutney, or chilled curd for a balanced flavour. They also pair beautifully with chai for an evening snack.

Garnishing Instructions

Sprinkle a pinch of chilli flakes or chopped coriander over the plate for a fresh pop of colour. You can also add a few toasted sesame seeds for an aesthetic touch.
