Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Dough

In a small bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.

2

Mix Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and yogurt. Add the yeast mixture and oil, and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.

3

Rest the Dough

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

4

Prepare the Filling

In a bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped cilantro, and finely chopped green chili.

5

Shape the Kulcha

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it slightly. Place a spoonful of the cheese filling in the center, fold the dough over the filling, and seal it.

6

Cook the Kulcha

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Roll out each stuffed ball into a flatbread and cook on the skillet until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

7

Serve

Serve the hot cheddar kulchas with butter or yogurt on the side.
