Onion Kulcha (onion stuffed naan)





Ingredients: 

Maida (all purpose flour) - 3 cups
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Baking Soda - 1/8th tsp
Sugar - 1 tbsp
Salt - as per taste
Oil - 1/4 cup
Yogurt - 1/2 cup

For the Filling:
Onion - 1 (chopped very finely)
Chillies - 2 or 3  slices thinly (or as per taste)
Grated ginger - 1/2 tsp
Cumin - 1/4 tsp
Salt - as per taste

Procedure:

1. Mix all the ingredients for the filling in a bowl until blended and set aside.
2. Mix all the ingredients for the dough, add water if needed to make it into a soft dough.Set aside for at least 1-2 hours. Then divide the dough into small pieces and make rounds of each them. Roll it out into a small circle with the help of a rolling pin, just like you would do with rotis or parathas.
3. Now place little filling in the center of the rolled out dough and bring all the sides up to enclose the filling.
4. Press it down. Now roll it down softly into a circle or oval likea  naan.
5. Heat the oven to 230 C. Place the rolled out naan on the pizza stone/ baking tray and cook it till the surface turns to golden color. (or) Gently roast the both sides of naan in a pan (don't add any oil) then cook the naan directly on the flame. You can also use the griller to make the naan.
