How To Make Alu kulcha/ Aloo Kulcha recipe / Aloo Kulcha on tawa
Today I will share step-by-step How To Make Alu kulcha/ Aloo Kulcha recipe / Aloo Kulcha on tawa Which is a very simple recipe. The dough is prepared usually with all-purpose flour, but here I have taken wheat flour and all-purpose flour (2:1) mixed, to make it a little healthy. To knead the dough usually used yeast, but I used here yogurt and baking powder. Then it was rolled thick with help of the hand and dusted with sesame seeds and coriander leaves on one side and baked in an oven or tandoor, here I used tawa/griddle by making it upside down.
