Ingredients:
• 3 cups – Maida (all-purpose flour)
• 1/2 tsp – baking powder
• 1/8th tsp – baking soda
• 1 tbsp – Sugar
• Salt to taste (approx. 1 tsp)
• 1/4 cup – oil
• 1/2 cup – yogurt
• 1 tbsp – Ghee
• For the filling:
• 1 – large onion, chopped very finely
• 2-3 – chillies, sliced thinly (or as per taste)
• 1/4 tsp – ajwain (oregano)
• 1/2 tsp – ginger, grated
• 1/4 tsp – cumin
• Salt to taste
Method:
- Mix all the ingredients for the filling in a bowl until blended and set aside.
- Mix all the ingredients for the dough, add water if needed to make it into a soft dough. Set aside for at least 1-2 hours.
- Then divide the dough into small pieces and make rounds of each. Roll it out into a small circle with the help of a rolling pin, just like you would do with rotis or parathas.
- Now place a little filling in the centre of the rolled out dough and bring all the sides up to enclose the filling.
- Press it down.
- Now roll it down softly into a circle.
- Set the setting of your oven to broiler. Once hot, place this rolled out kulcha into a baking pan and push it into the broiler for 2-3 mins until the top is browned.
- Now turn the kulcha and broil for additional 2 mins.
- Serve hot with butter melting on top and chole at the side.
