Garlic Butter Kulcha

#boxweek9 Kulcha is a delicious flatbread which has a crispy crust but soft inside. It is topped with aromatic spices which makes it all the more flavourful. There are two types of kulcha : 1. Plain kulcha topped with aromatic spices. 2. Stuffed kulcha Both ways they taste delicious and popular in North India as well as all Indian restaurants all over the world.Here I have shared a non-stuffed kulcha but bursting with the appetizing aroma of minced garlic,butter,chopped coriander and black sesame seeds.Choley Kulche are a perfect combination and popular in almost all restaurants but also pairs well with spicy and tangy specially North Indian gravies or curries like Kadai Paneer,dal tadka,dum aloo,Butter Chicken etc.
