  1. hi dassana! there seems to be a typo error regarding oil.it isn’t mentioned in the ingredients list.
    does one need to add salt whilst cooking matar?thanks

    1. thanks meveera. i have missed adding oil quantity. will update the post. salt is not added. but you can add salt if you want. add less salt as later also salt is added.

  2. can I use chickpea instead of white peas as the latter is slightly unhealthy? If yes, then what is the amount of chole should I use?5 stars

  3. The kulcha recipe is really good and healthy. I used only whole wheat flour to make it and it came out really well. Thanks5 stars

  4. Hi,
    I have tried very many recipes of yours and they have turned out perfectly suiting my families tastes. I love cooking too.. Have made matar kulche many a times but my husband says though close it’s not like what the guy on the streets of Delhi sells. Isn’t this recipe oil free??? Will try your version too…

    1. thanks sridevi. some recipes are made sans oil and some with. its similar to the ragda recipe that is served with ragda patties in mumbai and even ragda is made with or without oil. i think the street versions have their own secret masala or spices which makes the difference. homemade food can never be as close as the ones that are served on the streets 🙂

  5. i want to use readymade jaljeera powder, can you please tell the amount of powder to be used?

    thanks.

    1. mix the jaljeera with 1/4 to 1/3 cup water and add to the cooked peas. add 1 to 2 tbsp. if you feel the taste not coming through, then you can add 1 tbsp more. begin with 1 tbsp first and then increase if you do not get the right taste.

  6. Tried the recipe today, and it turned out excellent!!
    Easy to prepare,and better than your street side bhaiya!5 stars

  7. This is the best matar kulcha recipe i have tasted. Was looking for a good recipe for a long time and found it on your website.
    Have tried many of your other recipes too in the past, awesome job with the way you explain along with pictures. Makes it look very easy to try ?

  8. I love this recipe. It always does wonders to my in laws. Thank you for posting this one.

  9. hello, off late I have been trying quite some of ur recipes and all of them have turned out really well. Mostly Sanbjis, that is instant. I have to try ur bread recipe . Love baking but my previous tries on bread was always a failure

    1. thanks sudha. if you use a good quality yeast and proof it correctly. then 90% of your work is done. you just need to knead the dough well and leaven for the right period of time. do try baking breads at home. its creative as well as therapeutic.

  10. Can I use green peas instead of white peas in this recipe..the dish came out really well…thank for the recipe…take care

  11. Great recipe Dassana.
    Keep it going.
    There is always room for ‘traditional’ Indian food in this world!!

  12. I love kulchas, although not much of a fan of matar.. so everytime mom use to make kulchas it was chole-kulche for me. 🙂
