Kulchas Dough:-

Combine all the ingredients of dough into same
bowl and add water for making soft dough. Keep this dough for 2-3 hours for
fermented. Then divide the dough into small and equal portion and make rounds
of each them. Roll it out into small round shape with the help of rolling pin
same as like chapati or roti. Now place the stuffing in the centre of the
rolled chapati and close the all side of roti. Press it down. Now again roll it

Heat the non-stick tawa on the medium flame.
When the tawa is hot enough, place kulcha on the tawa carefully. Turn it and
spread little oil or butter on the top and flip it again. Do same with other
side. Cook for 5 minutes. Spread butter at the time of serving and serve hot
with chole’s and chutney.
