How to make?

• Firstly, prepare Semolina (Suji/Rawa) Batter by boiling Water in a pan. When Water starts to boil, add Salt, Chilly Flakes & Semolina (Suji/Rawa). Let it cook on low flame for 2-3 minutes or till the mixture is dry or till it leaves the sides of the pan.
• Now, transfer this mixture in a bowl & let it cool.
• Now, for preparing Stuffing (Green Layer), take a grinding jar & grind Bengal Gram (Dalia).
• Now, add Mint Leaves, Coriander Leaves, Green Chillies, Lemon Juice in the grinding jar & churn (Do not add Water because we need the mixture for the Stuffing to be dry).
• Now, take out all this in a bowl & add Pani Puri Masala & Black Salt & mix well.
• Now, divide this Stuffing (Green Layer) mixture prepared above into equal portions & make small balls out of it.
• Now, prepare Outer Layer by mixing Boiled Potatoes, Semolina (Suji/Rawa) Batter, Salt, Chilly Flakes & Bread Crumbs.
• Now, take a small portion of Outer Layer mixture prepared above & make a palm sized flat round (like a small Puri) out of it, put the Stuffing (Green Layer) ball in between & cover it by giving a round shape like a ball (Refer picture above). Similarly, prepare all other balls.
• Meanwhile, let the Oil heat in a pan.
• Now, prepare Corn Flour Slurry by mixing the Slurry ingredients mentioned above using your hands.
• Now, dip all the balls in the Slurry prepared above one by one.
• Now, coat each ball with Bread Crumbs.
• Then, fry all the balls on medium flame.
• Finally, your crispy Pani Puri Kachori is ready to be served with Green Chutney or any dip of your choice.
