Phulka
(Fulka, फुलका)
Phulka is a traditional flatbread that’s very similar to a chapati. Although both flatbreads are made from wheat flour, there are some key differences. Phulka is smaller in size and diameter than a chapati. Regarding the cooking method, phulka is first cooked on a tawa on one side, while the other side is placed over direct heat such as embers, resulting in its puffed up, ballooney appearance because of the trapped steam between the layers of dough.
Consequently, phulka is served immediately, as it is, otherwise it will lose its puffed up shape, while chapati is often brushed with ghee or butter after it’s been cooked. This puffy flatbread is usually served with different curries.
