Bajarichi Bhakri

Method

  • Take a bajari flour in a bowl, add salt and mix well.
  • Add 1/2 cup of hot boiling water and mix well.
  • After a dough cools down a bit, start the kneading process.
  • Gradually add remaining water to knead it in to soft dough.
  • Knead the dough good for about 4 to 5 mts.
  • Divide dough in to 3 equal balls, take one of the ball and smooth it out between palms and flatten it out.
  • Dust dry bajari flour on rolling board and start to pat the bhakari in round shape.
  • Use rolling pin to roll out bhakari to get even consistency.
  • Spread a bit of sesame seeds on the top of bhakari and give them a gentle pat as well, so that sesame seeds won't fall down while bhakari is getting roasted.
  • Put the bhakari on hot skillet in the upside down position.
  • Brush the floured side of bhakari with generous amount of water.
  • Let bhakari roast for minute or two or until water starts to evaporate.
  • Once the water dries out, immediately flip the bhakari over and roast from other side as well for about a minute.
  • Now move the skillet away, lift the bhakari and roast it on a direct heat just like how we roast fulka.
  • Serve hot with a dollop of ghee or butter on the top of it!
