Dry Kachori Recipe | Mini Kachori | How To Make Dry Mini Farsaan Kachori with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Deep-fried snack recipes have always been a popular choice among most of us, especially the younger generations. The most simple or basic ones are pakoda or bajji recipes, but there are much more complex ones and these are typically stuffed snacks. One such easy and simple stuffed deep-fried snack recipe is dry mini farsaan kachori known for its size and taste.

I have posted quite a few deep-fried snack recipes on my blog, but most of these have to be served immediately. I always get a lot of requests for some deep-fried snacks with a longer shelf life, yet do not end up with a stale oil smell. The answer to this problem is dry or mini kachori recipes. Well the recipe, is very much inspired by dry samosa recipes which typically contain dry or moisture-free stuffing. Most commonly, the kachori’s are made with dry stuffing but may contain some vegetable reference. This would end up having moisture and thus literally no shelf life. However, in this recipe, the stuffing is prepared with moong dal and farsaan, making it an ideal stuffing. You may use the same stuffing for samosa too, but I would recommend preparing this kachori than samosa.

Furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the dry kachori recipe. Firstly, I have prepared this kachori using maida or plain flour as it is the most recommended one for any kachori recipe. However, you may prepare the same kachori with wheat flour or even a combination of wheat and plain flour too. Secondly, the most important tip for a crisp and crunchy kachori is the deep frying technique. Basically, you need to deep fry these on a low flame. It can be time-consuming and tiring, but there is no shortcut to it. Lastly, these kachoris look very appetite and interesting because of their tiny small size. However, with the same stuffing, you may also prepare a normal-sized kachori too.
