Khulcha is a leavened bread which is flavoured with kasuri methi and is either
baked, shallow fried or deep fried.
chole and khulchas are sold in almost every eatery in north India. khulchas are
sold in packets which look similar to those of pizza bases. you only have to reheat them before serving.
you can use your favourite tikkis instead of the cheese and broccoli tikkis and they
will taste just as good!
