hello mamta,

i have a question regarding this recipe.

it says..1 kg plain four.

is that all purpose flour/maida...or regular wheat flour..

another thing was ...that can we use the split green moong dal...for the filling, the skin comes off if soaked for a few hours.

thanks

Hello Sia

  1. It is maida you need, we call it plain flour in UK. You can add a little chapatti lour, but traditionally, they have only maida. This recipe of moong dal kachuries is with chapatti flour: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10194 .

  1. The traditional Khasta Kachauries, http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10057, are here.

Yes you can use moong dal, that is what is often used. You can also use urad dal. If you don't like to wash your own dal, you can use pre-washed dals.

Sorry, I can't make the links clickable, I am in USA at present and can't remember the 'formula' for doin it !
