Kachori

The presence of kachori can be traced back to 1613 in Rajasthan even before samosas, another famous street dish. Like most of them, we can also trace the beginning of Raj Kachoris to Bikaner. The word raj means royal in Hindi ergo the Kachori was probably one among the delicacies served in the royal palaces.It is made mostly of white flour (maida) and Asafoetida(hing), which is often added to enhance its flavour. It is usually eaten at breakfast time at the beginning of the day or night and is often eaten with potato-pea curry and Bengali sweets. Similarly, Kachori stuffed with peas (Korayshuti Kochuri) is a delicious dish of the cool season of the year in Bengal. When it comes to Pyaz Kachori, Jaipur is considered to be one of the best attractions for foodies!The chutney creates a wonderful blend of taste which would definitely spoil your taste buds for good.
