pyaz ki kachori recipe | onion kachori | Jaipur pyaz ki kachori | with 14 amazing images.

pyaz ki kachori probably originated in Jaipur, Jodhpur but are today popular throughout Rajasthan. Very few households actually prepare these crisp, flaky deep-fried pyaz ki kachori stuffed with an onion filling.

Steaming hot Pyaaz ki Kachoris or Aloo Pyaaz ki Kachoris are sold at most 'namkeen' shops in Rajasthan. Like all kachoris, they are eaten with a sweet and spicy tamarind chutney.

When you think of popular food from the fabulous city of Jaipur then pyaz ki kachori comes to your mind immediately.

Notes and tips on making the perfect pyaz ki kachori recipe. 1. Adding ghee to the pain flour will make the kachoris flaky and crispy. 2. Knead into a semi-soft dough using enough water. Knead it well for about 4 to 5 minutes. 3. Cover the dough of the Pyaaz ki kachori with a wet muslin cloth so that the surface of the dough does not become dry. Keep aside for 15 minutes. Resting allows the gluten strands to relax and makes rolling and shaping of the dough easier. 4. Roll the filled portion again carefully into a 63 mm. (2 ½ ") diameter circle. make sure that the filling does not spill out.

You can prepare these kachoris ahead in time and re-heat them in an oven just before serving. They are perfect for an afternoon snack on a rainy day.

Absolutely fantastic. Really easy to make, flavorful filling, and flakey crust. I had to do without besan because that''s hard to get/make here, but I didn''t miss anything.

Kalonji and Saunf gives an intense rajasthani taste to the kachoris. Hot kachoris with tamrind chutney tastes superb.
