Pakistani Kulcha Recipe is a Pakistani flat bread which is very similar to naan, but the main difference between them is that Naan is made of a refined white flour whereas kulcha tends to be made with a wheat flour. Naan dough is leavened with yeast to make it soft and light.
Kulcha is also topped with Till (sesame seeds) and is usually served in Breakfast.
