  1. All of the delicious breads at the Bombay Bar & GrillMartha's favorite Indian restaurant in Westport, Connecticutare baked in a tandoor, a traditional rounded-top oven made of brick and clay. After the chef stretches the dough flat, he sticks it to the sides of the oven, where it bakes over the direct heat of a smoky fire. Once the dough is sufficiently puffed and browned, it is peeled off the oven's sides with specially designed metal skewers.
  2. Since you probably do not have a tandoor at home, you can create a similar effect by baking Indian breads in a conventional oven on quarry tiles or possibly a pizza stone.
  3. This recipe for onion khulcha comes from Peter Beck, executive chef of Bombay Bar & Grill and an expert in both southern and northern Indian cuisine. Though onion khulcha rises, the dough does not contain yeast. The natural bacteria in the yogurt activates the fermentation process, giving the bread a pleasantly tart flavor.
  4. Mix flour, egg, baking pwdr, sugar, salt, yogurt, lowfat milk, and oil till combined. Gradually add in 1/3 c. water, and knead dough till hard but not too soft. Let dough rest in a bowl covered with a damp cloth for at least 2 hrs.
  5. Place pizza stone in oven, and heat to 350. Divide dough into four pcs, and knead each piece on a floured surface till smooth, forming into a ball. Let rest 10 min
  6. On a lightly floured surface, press each ball into a disk, 8 inches in circumference. Cover entire surface with onions, peppers, and coriander. Place on pizza stone in oven, and bake till bread puffs up and brown blisters form on the surface, 5 - 10 min. Remove from oven, and brush edges with melted butter.
  7. SPECIAL THANKS to Peter Beck, Executive chef; Mohamed Enayetullah, Chef.
