phulka





Ingredients:
Wheat flour - 2 cups
water - 1 cup
Procedure:
take the wheat flour in a flat bottom bowl. Make a well in the center and add 1/2 cup of water. mix the water well with flour. add additional water slowly and knead it well. If water isnt sufficient add more water.Keep kneading the dough till soft. Once the dough is ready sprinkle some more water and knead it again for 5- 10 mins. If more water is added knead it the dough will absorb the water.
Cover it with cloth and keep aside for 15-20 mins. Its okay if done immediatly also but better to give it some sitting time.
Make small balls of the dough and make circle out of it using a rolling pin. dont make it too thick it should be thin enough.
take a flat pan/griddle and keep on stove in high flame. place the phulka on the flat pan for 2 mins until white spots appear. flip the phulka and keep for another 2 mins till its brown on the down side.
remove the phulka from the flat pan and keep directly on flame with the less cooked side down. The phulka will puff. using tongs make sure all sides of pulka are done properly. Make sure to work fast so that you wont get too brown spots which might make the pulka hard.
Keep in hotpack/bowl covering with cloth. this will make sure the perspiration from the heat of flame is absorbed making the pulka soft.
you can coat pulka with ghee for better taste.
accompany it with any side dish.
