How to Make Amritsari Kulcha
1.
Make a semi-firm dough with refined flour, water, salt and keep it covered with moist cloth for 1 hour in a cool place.
2.
Combine all filling ingredients, except canola oil, and gently fold together. Check seasoning.
3.
Dab some oil on your fingers and palms. Using them, make small balls (40-50 g each or size of medium potato) from dough and flatten to stuff with filling. Pack flattened dough with filling just enough to stuff and encase well.
4.
With a rolling pin, flatten wedges again.
5.
In a medium-hot, non-stick pan, brush wedges with canola oil and cook evenly on both sides. Serve wedges with coriander-mint chutney or curd (optional).
