[halu1halu]

can't understand

[MrsBhawnakhanna1]

Hello Aunty

I saw ur kachori recepie. I want to ask you can I use normal flour inspite of all purpose flour ( maida)?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@MrsBhawnakhanna1

You use normal flour, texture will be different for the kachori

[PrayerMantle]

OH those look fabulous! I can see why these are your comfort foods. I can't wait to try them.

[zeba832]

I can't wait to try this out, you did a really nice job of explaining! I was looking for another type of kachori recipe, one with the puri or a hard type of puri with yogurt, chick peas and tamerand sauce on top. It has a really nice sweet and sour taste. But I'm really happy I found this video!! thank you!!!

[shrideviamashi]

very good and easy to make recipe's.. thanks manjula aunty..

[139sammy]

Hello Aunty, I am from the UK can you let me know what volume cups you are using. In the UK we use 250ml, the US use 240ml and in India they use 200ml. Thx

[DuchessBrit]

Manjula thank you so much for this recipe. I was wondering what you do with your oil when you're done frying a dish?

[stephania19711]

Namaste Aunty, what ingredient may I use to replace mango powder?

thanks

[Manjulaskitchen]

@stephania19711

Make without mango powder.

[garimar05]

@stephania19711, try using lime juice instead of water when making the filling, That takes care of the sourness too.

[bjgonce90295]

moong daal is yellow split peas.

[Manjulaskitchen]

@bjgonce90295

Moong dal and yellow split pea two different lentil.

[dd9122]

Hello Manjula Aunt,

I tried these kachoris but mine did not fluff so well. After colling they became saggy not crisp. Please suggest. The only thing I did different from you is that I was fring one kachori at a time.

[Manjulaskitchen]

@dd9122 Puffing sometimes it needs practice, but not crispy i think heat was too high.

[mansipuri2010]

nice



[navyavenkat]

hello aunty

its nice recipe and nice description

[priyankagarg29]

Manjula ji,

can I use another daal in place of moong daal for filling...

[Manjulaskitchen]

@priyankagarg29

Why not

[vrsgreat]

Manjula Ji,

be ready to get compliment from my side -- i have seen so many of your's cooking videos. you r too good!! like lata mangeshkar has a big name in singing you have in cooking .. your cooking is so simple and flawless.. i admire your style of finishing one task completely at 1 time and then frying all togetter.. :)

[Imjat2002]

Hello Aunty! Thanks for nice recipe.Can we freeze the kachori's for future use?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@Imjat2002

Freeze them before frying wrap katchories individually so they don’t stick to each other thaw katchories before frying half the way.

[ubtough]

do we have to wait for oil to cool it down for other six kachori's, or we can put right after we take out the first batch? Also, how long can you put the jalebi batter in the fridge for later use?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@ubtough

You can put right after we take out the first batch

[captainzaheer]

do we have to cool down the oil for other six kachori's, or we can put right after we take out the first batch.

[learningforself]

thak you...:)

Regards

Parth

[Manjulaskitchen]

@parthrpatel80

[samarthkang]

Hello Aunty, heartfelt thanks for these wonderful recipes! You make Indian cooking look so simple! Thank you once again.

[maulik0585]

hello aunty do i need to soak the moong dal before grinding it or water added after roasting it is enough? if i need to soak it before grinding it then for how long do i need to do that???

[Manjulaskitchen]

@maulik0585

You do not need to soak the moong dal before grinding it water added after roasting is enough

[maulik0585]

hello manjulla aunty your receipe is very good but i have a small doubt regarding it.

while watching the video you said 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 cup chilled water to make the dough but when i checked your written list of ingredients its mentioned vice-versa so just wanted to know which is correct measure one that said in the video or the written in the list of ingredients below? waiting for your reply si that i can try it out as soon as possible.....

Thank you.

Hello Manjulaji......first please allow me to thanks you for your continous effort to make cooking easy for those who love to cook but don't know how? I have tried the moong dal kachori dish...and it turned out to be awesome. My family just loved it. I have something yo ask you. Can we make the dough same as samosa's dogh and add some suji in it...to make it more firm and crispier? If yes then how much will be the proporation? Once again thanks a tonnn.........

Hello auntyji

As like all ur vides these kachoris also look lip smacking.One doubt though-what is the sheet that u r using to roll out the kachoris -without flour or oil and still they r not sticking .I think siliconezone is written on them.R they sometype of non-stick sheets.Where do u get them and what is their real name?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@skskamakshi

this is silicon baking sheet I have purchased on Target.

[piyamitra]

[arora1998]

Dear Manjula Auntie Ji,

I made your Kachori's and they came out great but there was one problem as when I ate the moong dall stuffing it was a bit crunchy as the moong dall went into my teeth tell me if the moong dall is soaked overnight before making kachoris or is it unsoked,

waiting for your reply,

arora1998

[royny121]

you are absolutely right !!!

either do that ... or grind moong very fine

[coymelody]

Wow, aunty you're really good.

I love your cooking, thank you soooo much!!!

[emoboi1031]

the moong dal is lentils right?

[CantFndaName]

@emoboi1031 I'm looking for the same answer.

I think it is Mung bean.

[mishras17]

[humanseasons]

[GoranMak]

[chidsatwrk]

Hello Aunty...

I am Jain and I don't eat onion, garlic etc. You are like my mom in US now. I highly appreciate your show and your dishes. I was wondering if you could show how to make green beans and kidney beans more effectively??? Thanks again for your initiatives...

Ruchi

[Manjulaskitchen]

Hello Ruchi, I will do both thing soon

[rajneeshgarg]

Hi,

Do you have a recipe for Veg Patties/Puffs?

[purilbhavu]

wow. just amazing . so much helpful for me as i tried this earlier with some broken memories of india but it turned out to be a disaster but now it is so good. thank u so much for taking time and posting it. i wil try this as soon as i finish my exam....thank u

[bhopalan]

Aunty namastey. I have been a regular follower of your recipes and I absolutely love what you make. I have tried a few and have been able to implement them successfully. Although, I have a suggestion for you.Everytime you make a dish like Kachori, rasgulla, samosa or dahi vada etc., I would really appreciate it more if you could take a bite out of the preparation for the viewers to better see the interior cooked portion and figure out how it exactly is supposed to be. That would be awesome aunty

[Manjulaskitchen]

Thank you for the suggestion I will do next time

[tapsatyam]

thanks for posting such... great recipes.... it is really helpful for young gurls like me ... who stays in abroad.. n miss INDIAN... tasty food..

[iamvikas71]

Hi Manju mami, I tried this recipe and my kachori came out very well.

Its ur sonia (sonu-NJ)

[Manjulaskitchen]

thank you Sonia

[Vajitsaria]

Hello - This looks delicious and I am going to try making it but I have a question.

We do not like 'Hing'. Can this be eliminated or can anything else be substituted instead? Will this compromise the taste?

Thank you!!

Vanita

[Manjulaskitchen]

just dont use hing that will be fine.

[gems197882]

Hello manjula ji... nice recipes.... please guide me where u got the kadhao for frying in US.... i need to buy one... please help.... will surely try to kachori soon...:) do i have the permission to put in my blog... i will gie ur reference and link it back to ur website and you tube video...:)

[Manjulaskitchen]

frying pan you can buy in any store who keeps kitchen things and yes you can put the recipe video in your blog.

[VPP111]

Can all purpose flour replaced with wheat flour?

[Manjulaskitchen]

yes you can kachori will not be that crispy

[Deepikagarg]

I tried this recipe!! Worked wonders...My hubby and kids finished all of them in one go :-)...

I also loved samosa recipe...EVERYBODY loved it...Did not like moong dal dosa that much. :-).

[BloodRayne2008]

it would be cool at the end to see you eat the food you have made

because you can also discribe the flavour for people who have never tryed it

[VPP111]

Thanks auntyji

[vgogte1]

Thankyou so much Manjula Ji!!!! We were craving for kachoris from so long, ur recipe was just perfect!!! I tried it out last week. Please upload more recipes, I am a big fan of yours. I had some queries,If the filling is kept moist, and the dough soft then will it help in avoiding the kachori to crack while pressing it with palm of our hand? If it cracks what can be done to repair the damage?

[jki100]

hi manjulaji,

your kachori receipe tasted awesome but they did not puffed up.i did follow your entire reciepe directions.can u suggest me as to where i could have gone wrong?

[Manjulaskitchen]

dal should be moist before you fill, or dough was not knead enough or dough should have been little more soft.

[mamtaaithani]

Manjula i need a help on kachori !

Moong dal needs to be soaked in water ? or

as it is ...???????

[Manjulaskitchen]

you do not have to soak the dal before just try to follow the recipe

[jollyjots]

these were awsome!!...Can u plZZZZZZZZZZZZ show how to make Oondhiyon...I tried many times but jus din't get it right
