SAMAAN

AISE BANAO.

03Roll a dough ball, brush with butter, fold into layers and roll again.
04Stuff with filling, seal and press out into a thick kulcha. Press coriander and kalonji on top.
05Cook on a hot tawa, topping side up, covered for 2 minutes. Flip and cook until crisp.
06Brush generously with butter and crush lightly between your palms to open the layers.
07Serve with chole, onion and tamarind chutney.
RAMESHJI KA TIP“Chief Swaad Inspector approved. Sunder daalo, swaad badhao.”Crushing the hot kulcha between your palms is the Amritsari trick for those flaky layers.

SAWAAL JAWAAB

Can I bake them?

Yes. Bake at 240 C on a hot tray for 8 to 10 minutes, then butter.

Can I use whole wheat?

Use half wheat and half maida. Fully wheat kulchas are not as flaky.
