27 Sep Amritsari Alu Kulcha / Gluten free

Kulcha, originating from Punjab is a kind of Flatbread. Amritsari Alu Kulcha is a very favourite dish in the land of Punjab. Traditionally Kulchas are made in Maida (Refined flour), mildly leavened, and kneaded adding curd / milk. Kulchas can be stuffed or plain. A range of stuffing is used including, paneer, potato, onion and mixed vegetables. Amritsar is famous for its kulchas where wide variety of them are available. Maida contains partly proteins and partly starch which makes it glutenous and gives it the elasticity. As a variation, I have made use of Jowar flour and few starchy flours like Tapioca and Arrowroot to make it similar to Refined flour / Maida. You can check my earlier post on Gluten free flour mix.
