Matra Kulcha is a traditional North Indian dish, popular for its simplicity and flavor. It consists of "matra," which are spiced white peas cooked with onions, tomatoes, green chilies, and an array of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Served alongside "kulcha," a soft, fermented flatbread made with refined wheat flour, this dish is often garnished with fresh herbs, lemon juice, and sometimes offered with pickled vegetables for added tang. While Matra, as a legume, is rich in protein, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients, the kulcha is primarily carbohydrate-heavy with limited nutritional benefits. The dish provides good energy and plant-based protein but can be high in sodium and refined flour. For a healthier version, whole grain bread or less oil can be used in preparation. Ideal for a quick, flavorful meal, it is a beloved component of Indian street food culture.
