Ingredients and Steps
Big text, no distractions — for the stoveIngredients
- Maida
- Potato
- Spices
- Butter
Steps
- 1Mix maida with a little yogurt, baking powder, salt, and water into a soft dough, then knead for five minutes until smooth and cover to rest for at least two hours.
- 2Boil and mash potatoes while still warm, then mix in chopped green chili, coriander, ajwain, and salt to make the stuffing.
- 3Divide the rested dough into equal balls, flatten each into a small disc, and place a portion of the potato filling in the center.
- 4Gather the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal, then gently flatten the stuffed ball and roll it out carefully into a thick oval so the filling does not tear through.
- 5Sprinkle the top with nigella seeds and chopped coriander, pressing them lightly into the surface.
- 6Cook the kulcha in a very hot tandoor, or on a preheated heavy skillet covered with a lid, for two to three minutes on each side until puffed and golden-brown patches appear.
- 7Brush generously with melted butter as soon as it comes off the heat and serve warm with chole or pickle.
