Matar poori recipe
MATAR POORI / MATAR KACHORI/GREEN PEAS POORI /KORAISHUTIR KOCHURI //BENGALI GREEN PEAS KACHORI
Koraishutir Kochuri / Bengali Matarshutir Kochuri is a Bengali winter delight.Koraishutir .It is a fried bread with a mild and sweet green peas stuffing. A popular Bengali breakfast as well as snack. A Bengali wedding dinner or any special Bengali dinner happening in the winter session is almost incomplete without this.
The Bengalis make it with only maida, they also add little sugar to the dough.These are like kachoris . But here I have taken a combination of maida + wheat flour.
These go well with dum aloo and cholar dal .
To make this recipe healthy you can make them as parathas .
