Kulcha is a type of flatbread made from refined wheat flour, and fermented in earthen pots and baked in a tandoor.[1] The term kulcha derives from a Persian term for a disc-shaped loaf of leavened bread. In India, this term is commonly used for regular English disc-shaped bread.[2]
Another variant of kulcha is khatai or sweet kulcha, which is prepared in a similar manner, but with sugar substituted for salt.[3]
Origin and terminology
The term kulcha is Persian (کلوچه) and describes a disc-shaped loaf of bread, bun or even biscuit.[2][4] However, in India this term came to be associated with round breads popularized during the British colonial period.[5]
In some parts of India, naan or tandoori parantha is often confused with kulcha.
