Servings: 12 khakhras
Calories: 58kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup chickpea flour (besan)
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric
- ½ teaspoon carom seeds (ajwain)
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala (optional)
- ¼ cup dry fenugreek leaves (kasoori methi)
- 1 teaspoon avocado oil or any neutral oil
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and use enough water to knead into a fairly stiff dough.
- Let the dough stand for about 30 minutes so it relaxes.
- Take a ball of the dough, about 1 inch in diameter. Using a little oil on the surface of the platform, or a tiny bit of flour, roll the ball into a very thin disc, about 6 to 7 inches in diameter. The thinner you roll it, the crispier your khakhra will be.
- Heat a griddle and place the khakhra on it. When bubbles appear all over the khakhra, flip it and, using a clean, balled-up kitchen towel, press down on the bubbles, rotating the khakhra as you go.
- When golden-brown spots appear on both sides, remove and let it cool completely on a rack. The khakhra will firm up as it stands.
- Enjoy!
