Poha Kachori Recipe with Video | Khasta Kachori Recipe | Poha kachori is a crispy snack made from beaten or flattened rice (poha). It’s an easy recipe. I made it in two parts, first I made base for the outer cover by mixing potatoes and bread pieces, and then I made stuffing with beaten rice (poha), roasted peanuts and spices. After that I stuffed poha mixture in the kachori base and deep fried the same.
These crispy, tasty poha kachoris are amazing appetizer. I learnt this recipe of Poha kachori from my Mami. She used to make this snack whenever I used to visit to her place.
There are few things to remember to make poha kachori successfully:
- Make sure to use only white or yellow potatoes for making kachori base otherwise kachories may break while frying.
- Do remember to seal the kachoris properly after stuffing to avoid spillage while frying.
- The oil should not be very hot while deep frying otherwise kachoris will only get cooked from outside and would remain raw from inside.
