Vrat Ki Kachori Recipe or Kuttu Ki Kachori/Buckwheat Pastry is a cottage cheese stuffed pastry (kachori) which is filled with Paneer masala and shallow fried on medium heat. These Kachoris filled with masala are not made from wheat flour, but from Buckwheat flour which is usually used for fasting days. It is also a no onion no garlic recipe. In India, during the fasting periods especially Navratri which falls around march and October only fruits or ingredients made out of fruit are used to prepare food. North Indians normally avoid eating any grains at all. Food is eaten only once in a day and only rock salt is consumed during fasting. So all the recipes are prepared using rock salt or sendha namak as called in India.

Serve this crispy Vrat Ki Kachori Recipe with Paneer filling for evening snacks with No Onion No Garlic Dhaniya Pudina Chutney.
