I love indian breads very much, they are so much versatile and can be made in few minutes to have with curries..I make them a lot for dinner..So i couldn’t take pics of them. I have been getting request from my viewers to post kulcha recipe. So few days back i made these in the morning and had them with vegetable salna(recipe soon).
Normally kulchas, naan, tandoori rotis are made in a tandoor. But i have a fail proof method which works like a charm for my naans and kulchas..I have already showed you that method in my coriander naan recipe. This is how i make my naan bread and kulchas..Love that so much..So hope you will try it out and let me know how it turns out for you..
