Matra Kulcha is one of the most famous street foods from Delhi. A classic vegetarian dish made of dried white peas served with a white flatbread called kulcha.
Kulchas are light and fluffy and a special type of a leavened bread. They are also called ‘tawa bread’ as they are cooked in a pan. The kulchas have gone a transformation in recent years from thin delicious kulchas to thick pizza base style to kulchas cooked in onion, tomato masala.
I completely and utterly love the Masala kulcha- kulchas sauteed in onion and tomato masala. The soft, spongy kulcha absorbs all the flavours and masala making them finger licking delicious. I often make these kulchas now and they are my husband’s favourite. Lightly spiced these kulchas can be served with matra or a curry or raita.
Follow the Delhi wale Kulche for the recipe of the kulcha and then proceed with the preparation of the masala. This is a simple, delicious and quick recipe!
