Bedmi Kachori

Urad dal-stuffed deep-fried bread — whole wheat dough stuffed with a spiced paste of coarsely ground urad dal, dried red chilli, fennel seeds, and asafoetida, then deep-fried into a puffy, layered, dry-textured bread. Unlike Rajasthani kachori, the bedmi is drier and more bread-like than hollow. Served with aloo sabzi (a thin tangy potato curry with whole spices) and hari chutney. The traditional Old Delhi breakfast, particularly at Parathe Wali Gali and the stalls of Lal Kuan.
