Instructions
To make Kulcha:
- Mix 2 cups maida/ APF, 1 tablespoon instant yeast, ½ tbs Salt , 2 tablespoon Oil , 1 tablespoon Sugar and 2 tablespoon Curds/yoghurt in a bowl. I have added the ½ cup dhania/ coriander leaves chopped here.
- Knead the mixture to form a soft dough using¼ cup warm water. I recommend adding 1 tablespoon of water at a time.
- Apply the 2 tablespoon Oil and cover the dough with a cloth.
- Keep it in a warm place for 1 hour or until the dough is double in size.
Once the dough rises and you are ready to make the Kulcha
- Knead the dough for a few minutes.
- Make equal-sized balls. (The number will depend on the size of the ball; I get about 7 with this quantity of dough.)
- Use some dry flour and roll the balls in an oval or round rotis.
- If you did not add the coriander leaves while mixing the dough, apply some water to the Kulcha, spread them on top of the dough, and roll out lightly.
- Use a clean cloth and apply some water on the top of the Kulcha.
To cook the Kulchas in the oven
- Line a baking tray with Parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 475 F/ 220 C.

- Heat tawa or skillet. Transfer the Kulcha with the watered side down and cook on medium flame until the Kulcha has brown spots on it.
- Turn and cook on the other side again until it gets brown spots.
- Brush with 2 tablespoon Butter and serve hot with Chole.
To make Chole:
- Soak the dried 1 cup white dried peas overnight or at least for 4 hours in warm water.
- Transfer to a pressure cooker, add 3 cups water, a pinch of Salt, and mix well.
- Pressure cook for 2 whistles, they should not be overcooked but must be soft.
