Grease, Cover and Rest the dough for at least 1-2 hours until it doubles

Take out a small ball of dough ( you should be able to make 7-8 dough balls)

• Add dry flour to the surface and roll it gently. You can just stretch it out instead of using a rolling pin 

• Add little water to the surface of the rolled out roti and add some nigella seeds and coriander leaves

Heat up a pan on medium flame 

• Add kulcha to the hot pan with nigella seeds surface on the top 

• splash a few drops of water around the pan and cover and cook kulcha for 2-3 minutes on that side

Apply butter on the surface 

• Now flip the side and apply butter

Roast well until golden spots appear and kulcha is cooked thorougly

• That’s it, your Kulchas are ready
