Making Kulchas
- Preheat oven at 500 degree Fahrenheit. if you have Pizza stone, put that in oven, its really useful for Kulcha else use ordinary baking tray.
- Take one prepared, risen ball and dip in wheat flour (use rice flour if Gluten free) and make a disk with the help of rolling pins.
- add 1 ball of potato filling in the middle and fold again, dust again and roll in a disk.
- make a few of those disk and put in oven on heated pizza stone (if using) and bake for 8-9 minutes.
- serve hot with any curry or fresh Yogurt.
