Today I’m going to share how to make super simple Indian flatbread / Kulcha at home..!! It’s a lot like Naan, but the Naan is prepared with yeast, these delicacies are made with Baking powder / Sodium bicarbonate combo. This recipe is great for vegetarians, as it is yeast & egg free. This happens to be one of my favorite breads I order, when we eat at restaurants. Making this immensely fluffy, soft bread at home is fuss free & makes use of simple ingredients, that are lying in our pantry ! It tastes great with any spicy & light side dish and will be a hit menu in any dinner party. So, lets go ahead and get started preparing this classic Indianbread..:)
