Hing er Kochuri is a deep-fried puffed bread , stuffed with a pungent & spicy filling made of Asafoetida/Hing and roasted gram/chickpea flour. It is a very famous and delicious breakfast in West Bengal , usually served with a side of Cholar Dal or Alur Dom.
Kachori (or Kochuri) , is an essential part of Bengali cuisine. It is mostly eaten as a tea time snack in the morning or evening , often accompanied with tasty potato-peas curry and Bengali sweets. There are different variations of Kochuris available , like Koraishutir Kochuri (Peas stuffed) , Hing er Kochuri (Sattu stuffed) , Radhaballavi (lentil stuffed) and many more.
Fish Kachori is one of them and prepared by deep-frying, soft and flaky pooris stuffed with spicy, crumbled fish filling. I’m sharing my version here, the way I make it at home.
