Ingredients
- 2 - 2 - 1/2 cups All purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Dry yeast
- 1/2 cup Water Lukewarm
- 1/2 cup Milk Lukewarm
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Curd
- 1 teaspoon Ghee
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves Chopped (Optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the warm water and milk along with sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top.Keep aside for it to rise (appx 10 minutes).
- In a bigger bowl mix 2 cups of flour, salt, curd and ghee. Add the yeast mixture. Mix and knead well to form a soft dough.
- Keep adding more flour if you find the dough too sticky. Once you achieve a soft elastic non sticky dough, place the dough ball in an oiled bowl.
- Cover with a clingwrap and allow to rise and double in volume. Once the dough has doubled, remove the cling film.
- Push the dough down. Take small portions and form a ball. Flatten into small discs.
- Roll them into 4" diameter kulchas. Sprinkle a bit of the chopped coriander leaves on top of each kulcha.
- Place the kulcha on a hot tawa/griddle. When they start to bubble, rise and you see the edges turning slightly brown, flip it.
- After cooking for about a minute, remove the kulcha and serve hot.
- Ideally to be eaten with Chole.
