Bajrichi Bhakri/ Bajra Roti

Bajra Roti is an amazing winter food packaged with taste and health.

Its a very simple food, but can get tricky to get the perfect bhakris for a novice cook.

I tried using the baking paper and that worked really well. But if you are a bhakri expert, you can skip the baking paper and pat it directly on the rolling board.



Ingriedients:

Bajra flour - 2 cups
Wheat flour - quarter cup
Oil
Salt
Ghee - while serving


Procedure
  1. In a bowl, add all the above ingredients except ghee. Knead it well to prepare the flour. Add oil to make it smooth.
  2.  Make small round balls of the dough.
  3. Next take a baking paper and pat the ball to make it to a round shape. Try to pat it as thin as possible. The edges tend to break for a novice cook, but gets better with experience. Try to mend the broken edges. Its easier to begin with a smaller ball and preparing smaller bhakri.
  4. Next take a pan and place the bhakri from the baking paper on to the tava. Cook it on a low flame.
  5. In the mean time, prepare the next bhakri on the same baking paper.
  6. Put on a high flame and flip the bhakri to cook on other side.
  7. Once you see some spots (half cooked), put it on the gas burner and roast it like preparing fulkas.
  8. Cook on both sides.
  9. Bhakri it ready
Top the hot bhakri with loads of ghee and serve it with Baingan ka Bharta and Thecha
