Raj kachori is an Indian chaat made with a large puri, filled with kabuli chana, potato, sprouts, sweetened curd along with other chaat components like sev, green chutney, sweet chutney.
Raj kachori is one of my favourite chaat and order wherever I find it in the menu in restaurants. I have had this 2-3 times and love it a lot.  But now it’s more than 2 yrs since I had it. Somehow I remembered last weekend and thought of trying on my own at home. So finally I made yesterday and had it heartily. And I am disclaiming this recipe may not be the authentic one, but I can assure it turns out to be finger licking good🙂. Vj too loved it when I made it for him.
It’s sure full of calories with all those deep fried stuffs and curd, still, once in a while it’s a treat for you. You can make your guest wonder too by making this for them. You can make the sev, both chutneys a day ahead, even if you want to make (if you have large airtight containers) you can make the puris too ahead and make your job easier the day when you are preparing. All the chaat recipes have few ingredients to make, but once you make and keep it, you can enjoy these easily. Please refer to the chutney recipes and sev and papdi recipes by following the links in the ingredients table.

Notes

    • The puri should be crisp for this and make sure you fry in low flame to make it crisp.
    • I like mine on sweeter side, so add lots of sweet chutney and add sugar in curd. So adjust the ingredients according to suit your taste.
    • You can use ready made store bought sev and chutneys available in the stores for easy job or pre plan and make the before day and keep.
    • You can also top pomegranate in this. Amchur powder can be sprinkled.

  31. Yes sure, but please keep it in a airtight container or put it in a cover carefully and keep it refrigerated. If its properly, evenly fried, it will keep good just like a pani puri puri.
