Paneer Kachori

Its has been ages i had kachoris, yep almost more than a year i prepared them specially for Indian cooking challenge, after than i didnt had or prepared kachoris...As i prepared paneer myself at home this weekend i wanted to make some kachoris with those paneer and immediately prepared these crispies using those homemade scrambled paneer along with onions..It tastes marvellous and suits super prefect for evening snacks, we didnt stopped munching them..Serve this crispy kachoris with a cup of coffee, both together tastes absolutely divine...Very addictive kachoris for the sure...

Paneer Kachori

For Dough:
2cups All purpose flour
1/4cup Ghee
Salt

Mix the flour and salt, gradually add the ghee and turn the the flour as bread crumbs like texture, slowly add the water and make a soft dough, knead well..cover and keep aside for atleast half an hour..
