Replace the egg bhurji with paneer bhurji or a spicy mashed potato and pea filling for a delicious vegetarian version.
For a lower-calorie option, you can try baking the kachoris in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush them with a little oil before baking. Note that the texture will be less flaky than the fried version.
Incorporate finely chopped bell peppers, carrots, or sweet corn into the egg bhurji filling for added texture and nutrition.
The egg filling provides high-quality protein, which is essential for muscle repair, immune function, and overall body maintenance.

Yes, you can bake them for a healthier alternative. Arrange the kachoris on a baking sheet, brush with oil, and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes or until golden and crisp. The texture will be more like a baked puff than a traditional flaky kachori.
Kachoris can turn soft if the dough was too soft, the filling was moist, or they were not fried on low heat for a sufficient amount of time. Frying slowly on low heat is crucial to cook them from the inside out and achieve lasting crispiness.
Let the kachoris cool completely and store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat and restore crispiness, warm them in an oven or air fryer for a few minutes.
