\n\"Plain\n<\/div>\n

I have tried kulcha without yeast at home only once when I prepared Punjabi lunch menu<\/strong><\/a> and that too it was stuffed Amritsari aloo kulcha<\/a><\/b>, not the plain one. I have forgotten the taste of all the other recipes I tried for that Punjabi platter but I still remember the softness of the kulcha. At that time I had followed the recipe from \u201cThe Hindu-Food Safari<\/a><\/strong>\u201d Section which was an excellent, fool proof, easy kulcha recipe without yeast. So I made this butter kulcha following the same recipe for our Sunday breakfast. Kulchas are meant to be too thick & round but I made it thin as per my family\u2019s likings. It came out really awesome. I couldn\u2019t believe when Raksha had 3 kulchas and asked for more !!. Not just Raksha, even Sendhil & myself loved its softness very much, though we felt bad about the maida used in it. Sendhil was asking me the difference between Naan & kulcha. So I browsed & found some points which I have shared them below. He told me to try the same recipe with wheat flour too. I must give it a try. I made Restaurant style dal fry<\/a><\/b> as side dish for Kulcha. It was a lovely combo. Friends do try this plain kulcha recipe without yeast. I am sure u won\u2019t regret it. Just grease the kulchas with butter or ghee & relish it with the most popular side dish Punjabi Chole<\/a> or paneer butter masala<\/a>. <\/strong>It will taste heaven I say !
\nHere is difference between kulcha & naan for your reference

\nNaan Vs Kulcha – What is the difference between naan and kulcha ?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Naan and Kulcha are flatbreads that have Indian origin. While Naan is the more celebrated type of bread, Kulcha is a typical Punjabi bread that has old Punjabi traditions. <\/li>\n
  2. Naan is made in oven or earthen ware made of clay using charcoal to provide heat to cook the bread whereas Kulcha can be made on stove top too. <\/li>\n
  3. Naan is made with yeast and sometimes with milk and yogurt to make it soft and also to give it a bounce. But Kulchas are made using baking powder, baking soda, milk & yogurt to give softness. <\/li>\n
  4. Although Kulcha is similar to naan in looks and flavor, it is typically thicker and fluffier than naan. <\/li>\n
  5. Naans are usually oblong in shape while Kulchas are round.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
