  • Add the chopped onion, cilantro, grated carrot, cumin seeds, and carom seeds to the flour mixture.
  • Gradually add water, a little at a time, mixing until a stiff dough forms. Knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth. This develops the gluten, resulting in a crispier Kordoi.

  • Cover the dough and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, making the dough easier to roll.
  • Divide the dough into small, equal-sized balls, about the size of a large gooseberry.
