In a bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Mix well. Add 1/4 cup ghee and mix thoroughly. Gradually add water and knead into a semi-soft dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes. Knead the dough again, then divide it into small balls.

Flatten each dough ball and place a small amount of filling in the center. Seal and gently roll into small discs, like kachoris. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat for deep frying. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the kachoris one by one and deep fry until golden and crisp. Your tasty, crispy chana dal kachoris are ready! Serve hot with your favorite chutney.
