Kulcha Recipe ~ basic recipe



Kulcha Recipe ~ Basic       Preparation time :  1 hr    Cooking Time : 10mins      Total Time Taken : ~70mins              Makes ~ 15 Kulchas

Ingredients:     All-purpose flour/Maida/Plain Flour   200g Milk (add more if needed 100ml Yogurt/Curd   1 Tbsp Baking Powder ½ tsp Soda-bi-carb/Cooking Soda 1tsp Sugar 1tsp Salt 1 tsp Black Sesame Seeds As needed Chopped Coriander 1 Tbsp Butter/Oil Healthy portions   Method : 1.       Sieve flour, salt, sugar, soda, baking powder. Sieving adds invisible ingredient, air , which is required for making kulcha fluffy n soft.   2.       Add milk and curds. Mix well to form a firm yet soft dough.  Knead the dough well. I use my food processor with dough hook for kneading. 3.      Rest the dough for 20-30mins. 4.      Pinch a lemon sized dough and roll it into a circle. Not to worry about the shape.   5.      Lift half the rolled circle and spread sesame seeds and coriander leaves. Close it and gently roll it with rolling pin. 6.      Transfer it to hot pan. When you start seeing bubbles, flip it and toast it. After flipping, I usually toast it on stove top directly. 7. Apply butter/ghee/oil once you remove kulcha from stove top. Serve immediately. Note: 1. Do not use water to make the dough. 2. You can use oven to bake kulchas too! Try it!
