A popular dish from the streets of Amritsar, Delhi, and Lucknow, Keema Kulcha is a delicious combination of soft, tandoor-baked bread and a spicy, flavorful minced meat filling. The dough is made with refined flour (maida), yogurt, and milk, ensuring a soft and fluffy texture. The filling consists of minced lamb or chicken (keema), sautéed with onions, garlic, ginger, green chilies, and aromatic Indian spices like cumin, coriander, garam masala, and kasuri methi.
Once stuffed, the kulcha is rolled out and baked in a tandoor or cooked on a griddle with butter, resulting in a crispy, golden-brown exterior with a juicy and flavorful filling inside. It is best enjoyed with chutneys, yogurt, or a side of spicy curry like chole (chickpea curry).
Keema Kulcha is a must-try dish for those who love stuffed bread with a meaty, spiced kick!
