Omani Kachoris

Cultural Context

Originating from the Indian subcontinent, Kachoris have made their way to Oman, where they are enjoyed as a popular snack. Traditionally filled with spiced lentils or peas, these deep-fried pastries are often served during festivals and gatherings. In Oman, they have been adapted to include local spices and flavors, making them a beloved treat in the region.

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder.

Divide the dough into 8-10 equal pieces and roll each piece into a thin circle.
