Onion Kulcha

I have tried many north indian recipes at home, but always found something missing with final result. Finally got to know what was it when I made these onion kulcha with dal tadka at home. Combination was just awesome and my family just loved it. Its simple and tastes just like one made in tandoor served in dhaba or hotels. So here we go...

Ingredients :

1 cup  whole wheat flour

1/4 cup maida

1 tsp baking powder

1 tbsp curd

3 tbsp milk

Water

salt to taste

1 tsp oil

For stuffing:

1 cup onion

Salt to taste

1 tsp chilli powder

1 tbsp chopped coriander 

Method :

• Mix maida, wheat flour and baking powder. You can also use only maida instead if wheat, but I prefer using wheat as it is healthy option.
• Mix curd and milk to it. Milk will make kulcha really soft.
• Add salt and water and knead dough like we do for day to day parathas.
• Add Oil and knead it again and give it rest for minimum 45 mins.

• Mean while take onions and to it mix chilli powder and coriander. Add salt just before you want to roll kulchas.

• Now roll small roti's out of small potion of dough and stuff onion mixture to it and roll it again to form medium size kulcha. 

• Simultaneously take a aluminum kadhai and keep it on gas stove to heat it on high flame. Once kadhai is hot, you are ready to cook kulchas.

• On one side of kulcha apply little water and shift it to kadhai with water side down. Now reduce flame and let it cook for around a min. You will kulcha automatically leaving sides of kadhai when cooked on one side and will be slight golden brown.

• Now you don't have to cook other side on kadhai, but directly on gas flame. Place kulcha on medium flame and cook on other side till you see dark brown spots on it. Turn it so that even other side gets some brown spots and will get smoky taste.

That's it, kulcha is ready to serve. Apply butter and serve it with your dal or sabji or eat it just like that.
