How to make Kulcha on a griddle

Take 2 cups of refined flour in a bowl, add a teaspoon of instant dry active yeast to it along with a teaspoon of sugar and a ½ teaspoon of salt. Take some lukewarm and knead the soft dough while applying some oil on your palms.

Mash the dough for kneading it and mash it well for 4 to 5 minutes. After kneading the dough, cover and keep it in a warm place to set for 1 to 1.5 hours. The dough has expanded twice to its original size within an hour.

Punch and mash the dough after applying some dry flour on your palms. Divide the dough into the dough lumps as per your desired sizes. Coat them with the dry flour, cover and keep them aside for a while.

Preheat a pan on low flame and flatten the dough lump into oval-shaped Kulcha using a rolling pin. Sprinkle some dry fenugreek over it and flatten it. Spread a round shaped butter over the pan and grease it with some oil.

Place the Kulcha over it to cook and cook while covering it for 2 minutes on low flame. Flatten the rest of dough lumps likewise and after 2 minutes, flip the first Kulcha. The Kulcha has semi-cooked and it is ready to be cooked for serving.

Serving

Preheat a pan, grease it with some clarified butter and place the Kulcha over it on medium flame. Cook the Kulcha while flipping it until it becomes brown from both sides. After cooking the Kulcha, serve it along with Chole curry or nutri curry.

Suggestions

You can use silicon or a regular sheet of paper instead of butter paper.

The dough might take 2 to 2.5 hours for fermenting if the season is of winters.
