Lotta Kach

How is Lotta Kach Prepared? 

A handful of key ingredients are required for preparing lotta kach. The preparation begins  by combining 1 cup of maida with half a teaspoon of instant yeast, a teaspoon of sugar and a pinch of salt. All these ingredients are mixed to make a tight dough. Extra care is taken to ensure that the dough is not wet, because consistency of the dough holds the key to achieve the perfect shape of lotta. 

The magic of Lotta Kach  lies in the spicy and tangy chutney known as Kach. This Kach is prepared by blending together ingredients like tamarind, tomato, garlic, Kashmiri chili and turmeric powder. The unique amalgamation of all these flavors adds a burst of taste to the already enticing lotta kach. The tight dough is shaped into small balls, then flattened and deep fried to make lotta. The crispy lotta with the tangy kach makes lotta kach irresistible.
