Onion Kulcha

For the Indian Cooking Challenge(ICC) Srivalli has chosen 3 types of stuffed kulchas such as onion kulcha,aloo anardhana kulcha,panner kulcha for the last month.Due to to some reasons it was cancelled and we are doing this month.
As I don't have panner and anardhana powder I chose to make Onion kulcha which came out very perfect and we enjoyed with green peas masala.Now to the recipe....................  

Ingredients

Coriander leaves(finely chopped)2tbs(optional)

Method 

                              Mix the ingredients given to make kulcha in a wide bowl and mix well with water as needed to a soft dough and set it aside for 2-3 hours.
Mix the chopped onions,green chillies,grated ginger,cumin seeds and ajwain along with salt.
Divide the dough equally and roll into a small disc and keep 1tbs of filling in the center.Pull the edges  to the center and cover it.
Flatten it and roll gently without giving too much of pressure on a floured surface into circle.
Heat a griddle and cook it both sides in a medium flame till brown spots appear.Drizzle some oil or ghee both sides.
Serve it with chole or curry of your choice.

  • Squeeze the excess moisture in the onion before mixing everything otherwise the stuffing become watery and cannot be rolled properly.

  12. You have made it perfectly. I found it difficult to roll out with the onion filling on a prior attempt. I will give it another try.
