Matar paneer kachori -Crispy Fried shells stuffed with Peas and Cottage Cheese

Matar Paneer Kachori is a snack which is a favorite of everyone who loves fried Indian foods. During any festival we all make some thing savoury and spicy along with sweets. Kachori is always in the to do list of my festival preparations.

I love flaky khasta kachoris and make them with different types of filling. Khasta means crisp and  flaky . These stuffed kachori’s are very crisp and stay like this for a long time.Mostly they are stuffed with soaked and coarsely ground urad ki daal/ white lentil or with mashed paneer or boiled mashed potatoes .

In my hometown Mathura Urad daal ki khasta kachori’s are very popular.Today I have tried a spicy green pea and paneer (farmer’s cheese/cottage cheese) filling to make kachori which was liked by everyone in the family.
