Kaddu Kofta With Kulcha Recipe

• To Make Kulcha :
• Mix the yeast in luke warm water, milk, sugar and leave it for 5-10 minutes.
• Seive the maida. Add the prepared yeast, curd, baking powder, ghee and salt and knead it well. The dough should be kept in a container closed with aluminum foil for at least 2 hrs.to rise ( only when it rises that the Kulcha will be soft.)
• By the time it rises cook the potatoes. Mash it well by adding paneer to it. Add ginger garlic paste, chilli powder and salt. Make it into small balls. Set aside.
• Knead the dough again after 2 hrs and make it into small balls. Roll the dough into a circle and keep the paneer ball and fold that to make balls. Roll out each piece carefully on the well floured surface.
• Heat non-stick frying pan over a high heat when the pan is heated, place one of the dough rounds on the pan and after about 30 seconds, press it with a cloth so that it is baked. Grease ghee on both sides.
• When the kulcha is well browned on both sides, remove from the pan. Repeat this process until all the kulchas are cooked.
