Luchi is a deep-fried flatbread that has its roots in Bengal, Assam, Odisha, and Maithili. Luchi is different than some other notable Indian breads like naan, and chapattis. They are made by flattening balls of dough into a disc 4-5 inches in diameter; the perfect size for a fun size treat. The bread pairs well with all types of condiments, including curries and jams. Experiment with it and try to find the pairing that you love best.
