About the dish

Chur chur is a traditional flatbread and a variety of naan. The dough is usually made with flour, sugar, baking powder, ghee, salt, dahi, water, and oil. Once shaped, the dough is stuffed with a mixture of boiled and mashed potatoes, grated paneer, chopped onion, hot chili peppers, ginger, red chili powder, garam masala, amchur, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. The stuffed dough is baked in a tandoor or cooked on a tawa until it turns golden brown. Once done, chur chur naan is lightly crushed, then brushed with ghee or butter and served as it is. If desired, the flatbread can be garnished with grated paneer on top.
