Masala kulcha (Stuffed Indian flat bread)

This Indian flat bread is a whole meal in itself as it has the fillings of spiced up mashed potatoes. It can be baked or cooked over an inverted iron griddle. It tastes great when it is smeared with butter and eaten hot. 

Ingredients:
All purpose flour (maida) -250gms
Dry yeast -2tsps
Sugar - 2tsps
Oil - 2tsps

For the filling
Boiled potatoes -100gm
Garam masala -1tsp
Chilli powder -1/2tsp (optional)
Chopped coriander - 2tsps
Kalonji (nigella) seeds -1tsp
Salt to taste


Method:
Combine all the ingredients for the filling and make small balls out of it. Keep it aside. 
Place the dry yeast and sugar in a mixing pan. Add half cup of lukewarm water to it. Set it aside for 15 minutes. Then, add the oil, salt and flour to the yeast mixture. Add more water and knead well. The dough should be sticky. Cover and rest for one hour for it to raise and double in quantity.
After one hour, add little oil to the dough and knead again. Divide the dough into equal parts to match the filling. Flatten the dough slightly and place the filling. Seal it thoroughly. Dust some flour and flatten each piece using both the hands. Place it over a greased tray. Sprinkle some onion seeds on top. Bake it at 200°C for 7 minutes in a pre-heated oven. Brush generous amount of butter and serve hot.
