Method

Combine sesame seeds and garam masala into the potato sabzi before stuffing.
Soak moong dal for 2 hours. Drain and grind into a fine paste. Mix with besan, cumin, garam masala, chili powder, and salt. Add water to form a thick dough.
Knead the dough and let it rest for 15 minutes. Divide into small balls.
In a separate bowl, mix mashed potatoes with turmeric, cumin, garam masala, salt, and oil. Set aside.
Heat oil in a pan. Flatten each dough ball into a disc and deep-fry until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Once cooled slightly, split the kachori open and stuff with the spiced potato mixture. Serve with ghee and coriander leaves.
