Market in Bikaner

Today I went to the market in Bikaner. The vegetables and fruit are incredible! If I had an apartment and cooked for myself, I would have bought a big bag full. I also ate Raj Kachori at the market.

Raj Kachori is a popular Indian chaat which crispy fried shells (kachori) filled with potatoes, boiled moong dal, yogurts, spices, chutneys and topped with various garnishes like cilantro, sev and pomegranate.

raj= means royalty/grand
kachori= refers to a flaky, crispy savory snack/pastry

Various types of kachoris are made in India , some are stuffed, some are plain but they are all crispy.

Most kachoris are super simple compared to Raj Kachori, hence this kachori is like the king/queen of all kachoris. And that’s the reason it’s filled with so many things because it’s over the top in taste and also in presentation.Läs mer
