First of all we will put a pan on the gas and add 2 cups of water in it. When the water starts boiling a little, then we will add 150 grams of tamarind in it.
After adding tamarind, we will cook it for 15 minutes. When it is cooked for 15 minutes, we will check it once whether our tamarind has dissolved well in the water or not. We have to keep the tamarind chutney a little thin because we have to strain it too.
So our tamarind has mixed well with the water. Now we will add 50 grams of jaggery in it and cook for 2 more minutes. Cut the jaggery into it and mix well with the tamarind and our chattani gets a sweet and sour taste.
So now after cooking for 2 minutes, our tamarind is cooked. Now we will add Tadka to it so that the taste increases. So for Tadka, first of all we will put a pan on the gas and add 1 teaspoon of mustard oil in it.
When the oil gets hot, we will add 1 teaspoon coriander seeds and add red chilli powder and fry it for 1 minute and then add it to the tamarind chutney. Now our tadka is also ready.
Now we will filter everything with the help of a sieve and leave it to cool down. If our chattani is a little thin, then it will become fine after cooling down.
So our chutney is ready.
Learn to make Raj Kachori:-
First of all we will take a bowl and in it we will take 250 grams of flour and 250 grams of semolina. Both of them should be kept in the same quantity otherwise the balance of Raj Kachori can be different. You can take as much semolina as you like.
The crispiness in Raj Kachori recipe comes from semolina only, so now we will mix both the flour and semolina well and knead it well by adding water little by little. We will keep it a little tight so that there is no problem in rolling it.
Now we will let this kneaded dough rest for 5 minutes. When it rests for 5 minutes, then we will cut it into medium size pedas. After cutting all the pedas, we will roll them with the help of a rolling pin.
Now we have rolled all the pedas. Now we have to sift them. So for sifting them, we will place a pan on the gas and put 500 grams of refined oil in it. We will heat it
