• Potatoes 8-10 (boiled)
• Arrowroot 100 grams
• Coconut (grated) 1 bowl
• Black grams or chole (soaked overnight and boiled with the potatoes)
• Green chillies 4-5 (chopped)
• Armchoor or Dry mango powder 1 tablespoon
• Asfoetida or hing 1 pinch
• Oil 1 cup (for deep frying)
• Salt as per taste

Boil the potatoes and the gram together. Keep the gram for later use and smash the potatoes with a the head of a serving spoon.

Now dilute the arrowroot with 2 cups of water and mix it with the smashed potatoes.

Add salt and asfoetida to this mushy mix; even out all the lumps or the this kachori recipe would not work.

Now mix the grated coconut with the gram and season it with green chillies, a bit of salt and amchoor. Whip over to mix it well.

Take small portions out of the potato arrowroot mix and and roll it out into a flat bread (puri).

Now put a spoonful of coconut filling in it and roll it into a small round ball.

Heat oil in the pan and only when it is steaming hot, release the puris in it. They will bloat up instantly.

Serve Aloo Kachori with dal or raita.
