Additional Tips
- For extra-crispy baskets, let them cool completely on a wire rack after frying or baking—this prevents steam from softening the shells.
- Try brushing the inside of the cooled baskets with a thin layer of tamarind or green chutney before filling; this not only adds a punch of flavor but also creates a moisture barrier to keep the baskets crisp longer.
- You can experiment with fillings by adding spiced yogurt, boiled potatoes, sprouted moong beans, or even pomegranate seeds for a colorful, textural contrast.
- To make the baskets ahead of time, store them in an airtight container with a small packet of silica gel or a handful of uncooked rice to absorb moisture and retain crispness.
