Instructions
Make the Katoris
- In a large bowl, sift together the whole wheat flour, semolina, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures a light and airy texture.
- Add the melted ghee to the dry ingredients. Using your fingertips, rub the ghee into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the chopped green chilies, coriander, curry leaves, and yogurt. Mix well to combine.
- Gradually add water, a tablespoon at a time, until a firm dough forms. Knead the dough for a minute or two until smooth. Cover and let it rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Lightly grease an inverted muffin tin or small bowls. These will serve as molds for the katoris.
- Roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thickness. Cut out circles large enough to fit over the greased molds.
- Drape the dough circles over the molds, pressing gently to ensure they adhere. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Once baked, carefully remove the katoris from the molds and let them cool completely.
Make the Russian Salad
- In a large bowl, combine the grated carrot, shredded cabbage, sprouts, diced bell peppers, and chopped pineapple.
- Add the mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, chopped coriander, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat all the vegetables.
- Fill the cooled katoris generously with the Russian salad. Garnish with diced tomato, red onion, and fresh coriander leaves. Sprinkle with chaat masala, if desired.
