About Luchi Recipe (Bengali Luchi)
This recipe is similar to my battura, but it has no curd or milk in it. There are few differences between luchi, poori and battura. Poori is made with wheat flour and it golden in colour, plus it gets a little hard and dense when it cools. Battura has milk, curd, some kind of raising agent or yeast it in. But this luchi is white in colour and has a good amount of ghee or oil in them which makes it soft soft even after it cools.
This luchi is so soft and so yummy. Please add a good amount of ghee or oil in the dough, it makes it soft. This taste yummy and soft even it gets cold. I hope you will love this and let me know how it turns out for you..
