How to Make Stuffed Kulcha on Tawa & Pressure Cooker | Amritsari Stuffed Kulcha with Sabji Recipe

Hello and welcome to my channel Vegan Spatula. Let the food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food. Today we are cooking stuffed kulchas, a speciality from Amritsari cuisine. They can be stuffed with an assortment of fillings. In this recipe, we are stuffing the kulchas with slightly spiced paneer mixture. Kulchas can be served with any kind of curry like chickpea curry, potato curry or it can also be served along with curd or pickle. Let's prepare the dough first. 3 cups of whole wheat flour. 1 tsp of baking soda. 1 tsp of salt. Mix all the dry ingredients well. Add 3 tbsp of curd. A little more. Half a cup of milk. Let's mix them. Add water. Little by little. So the dough is ready. The dough should be soft, neither too soft nor too soft. We'll apply some ghee on it. Just a very little amount of ghee. 2 tsp will work. We'll keep it like this for the next 30 minutes. Cover it and keep it aside. While the dough is resting, let's prepare the paneer mixture. This is 200 gms of paneer. You can crumple it or grate it. 1 medium sized onion, finely chopped. Coriander leaves. Some masalas. This is black pepper powder. This is coriander powder. Table salt. Fennel seeds powder. And some chaat masala. Mix them all. You can make a mix of potato and paneer as well. You can use any filling you like. So our dough is ready. Paneer mixture is also ready. So we'll still spare some time. Let's cook the potato curry quickly. 1 tbsp of oil. We'll use just enough oil to cook the whole spices. This is 1 tsp of cumin seeds. And 1 tsp of coriander seeds. 2 chillies. Dried chillies. Roughly chopped tomatoes. 1 tbsp of salt. Let's cook the tomatoes till they get tender. And then we'll add all the spices. Tomatoes have become soft. Let's add turmeric. 1 tsp of turmeric. 1 tbsp of coriander powder. 1 tsp of dry mango powder. 1 tbsp of curry powder. 1 tsp of black pepper powder. 1 tbsp of dry fenugreek leaves. We have added very little oil. That's why it looks like a ball. 1 cup of water. It has started to boil. Let's add mashed potatoes. I'm using 4 medium sized potatoes. You can adjust the consistency by adding required water. Let it simmer for next 2-3 minutes. The potato curry is ready. Let's add coriander leaves. Switch off the flame and move it aside. It is ready. The basic equipment to make kulchas is tandoor. But we don't have tandoor at home. So we can use either cooker or tawa. Let's start with the cooker and see how it goes with tawa. This is 3 litre cooker which I'm using today. You can also use 5 litre one. But don't take the size below this. What is important is that your hand can move in and out easily. It has to go upside down over the stove. Like this. Switch on the flame. It's like we are pre-heating our cooker. Before putting the kulcha in it. Let's prepare the kulcha while it is heating. Our dough is perfectly done. It is quite soft and smooth. The kulcha will be all similar as we do for parathas. Normal stuffed parathas which we make daily. We will roll it in the same pattern. Apply water on the top layer. Which will stick in the cooker. So the cooker is also heated up. We will put this kulcha into it. Like this. Just make sure the upper layer sticks to it. Like this. Cook it on high flame for some time. See. This is done. It is a little sticky. As we applied water to it. It may not come out easily. But it will come out. This is evenly cooked. As you can see. From the back. This is nicely cooked. Apply some ghee on it. You can use butter. Home made white butter. Or any butter you like. And it is good to go. Let's try to cook kulcha on tawa also. Apply water on the top side. See if your tawa is hot or not. Okay. This is good to go. Keep the water side down. And put it on the tawa. Let it cook for some time. So that it sticks to the tawa. As you can see some bubbles. Flip it. On the flame. To cook it directly. And just. Apply some. Ghee on the top. And let's. Taste it. They are perfect.
