The oil has to be at a low or low-medium flame while frying. Thus the frying takes some more time. 2.The proportion of fat (moyen) to flour is important along with getting the correct thickness of the kachori. 3.The thickness should be medium and not thin or thick. Thin kachori will become too crisp and get hard. Whereas thick kachori may have undercooked dough from inside. Enjoy my receipe!
