Wheat Kulcha Recipe

How are you all doing? Keeping Safe & Healthy in this Covid-19 Era I hope. It’s been a month but actually feels like an Era to me & I am sure to all of you too. But ” This too shall pass ” as every good or bad in life does. We will soon be meeting each other; maybe in a more Healthier state both physically & mentally. So, I will share a Wheat Kulcha Recipe with you which help you to guard against Covid-19.

As I wrote in my last blogpost too, the best guard against Covid19 is eating healthy & keeping the immune system strong.

But of course, we need some restaurant-style food too to keep us happy along with Healthy !!

So, I am posting my Whole Wheat Kulcha recipe today which is simply super to have with your favourite curries, dals or Sabji ( vegetables ).

Kulcha is different from Naan because it doesn’t use yeast but uses baking powder & baking soda as a leavening agent. I have posted the Whole Wheat Kulcha but you can make this with Maida or all-purpose flour too as generally made in restaurants. But this a more healthy way of making the Kulcha as it uses Whole Wheat Flour & is way higher on nutrition.

The Wheat Kulcha Recipe

Ingredients

1. 3 cups Whole Wheat Flour
2. 3/4 cup yoghurt
3. 3/4 cup warm milk
4. 1 tsp baking powder
5. 1/2 tsp baking soda
6. 1 tablespoon sugar
7. 1 teaspoon salt
8. 3 tablespoons Ghee / Clarified Butter
9. Water as needed
10. Butter & Nigella seeds / Kalonji to garnish

Method

1. Mix all the above ingredients from 1 to 8 in a bowl.
2. Add water to make a soft dough ( very important to make a good Kulcha ) & Keep aside for half an hour.
3. Make 10 to 12 balls of the dough depending on the size you want of the Kulcha.
4. Roll out into discs taking care that they are neither too thick nor too thin.
5. Apply a little water on the top side & sprinkle some Kalonji / Nigella seeds.
6. Roll on it once more so that the seeds stick well.
7. Now put the top side of the Kulcha on the heated Tawa & cook for about 20 to 30 seconds.
8. Flip on the other & cook on a high flame till dark brown spots appear.
9. Now cook the top side directly on the flame till it fluffs up & brown spots appear on it.
10. Apply butter on the hot Kulcha & serve immediately.

This Whole Wheat Kulcha Recipe is great not only to have with any curries or daals but also have it plain with some yoghurt & pickle & it is simply delicious.

Hope you loved this Wheat Kulcha Recipe too !!
