Ask any local what to eat for breakfast, and you’re bound to hear “Jain ki Kachori le lo!” echoing through lanes of Sadar Bazaar. Whether you're on your way to work, a college student looking for a quick bite, or a traveler exploring old Meerut, these piping-hot kachoris served with spicy aloo sabzi hit the spot.
The kachori is meticulously prepared without onions, garlic, or root vegetables, satisfying Jain dietary principles. It's filled with lightly spiced lentils and deep-fried until just golden and crisp. The complementary aloo sabzi is tomato-based and mildly spiced—simple yet flavorful, designed to pair beautifully with the kachori.
No tables, no fancy signage, no packaging frills—but they often sell out entire batches within 2–3 hours. On Sundays, you’ll often see long queues starting as early as 8 AM and families buying 10–12 kachoris to take home.
Jain Kachori Wala isn’t just street food—it’s more like a heritage ritual in Meerut. With its devotion to Jain‑friendly cooking, affordable pricing, and long-standing reputation, it stands out as a gateway to the city’s culinary identity. Whether you're a local, a pilgrim, or a traveler, a plate of kachori-sabzi here is a morning well spent.
