Ingredients to Make Rajgira Bhakri
Peanut Oil - Peanut Oil adds a beautiful nutty taste to this bhakri, which complements perfectly with its own earthy taste. Use any nutty oil to make this bhakri for that extra punch of flavor. Cumin Seeds - The warm spice of cumin is going to work perfectly to balance the flavors of the Rajgira Bhakri. It is just a wonderful spice to add, isn’t it? Ginger and Green Chili Paste - Now that we have been adding all the warm and earthy notes to our Bhakri, this punch is necessary. To take it up a notch, these spiced flatbreads are going to be the highlight of your meal. Kashmiri Red Chili Powder - I like to add some Kashmiri red chili powder in the flour. The Rajgira Flour is Light Brown in color. To make the Chapatis an even tone of darkish brown, the red chili powder will set the tone right. Chopped Cilantro - The freshness of chopped cilantro adds a refreshing flavor, making these absolutely scrumptious. Salt - Salt brings the recipe to life. If you are fasting you can you sindhav namak or rock salt. These are also easily available in the Indian Store. Water - We will be using little water at a time to knead the dough.
Expert Tips to Make Perfect Rajgira Bhakris
Since Amaranth Flour is Gluten- Free, the dough needs to be kneaded carefully. The dough shouldn’t be to less or more moist. We use the water one splash at a time, just to bring the dough together. A little water goes a long way. For 3 Cups of Flour I used 1 cup of Water. Cover with a damp cloth and let the dough rest for 30 mins. If you are making these for the first time, and are not fasting add 1 tablespoon of Besan. It will make the dough more easier to roll into flatbreads. If you are fasting, andn making these bhakris for the first time, addingone small mashed boiled potato to the flour. Adjust the spices accordingly. And start kneading the dough. This will also make rolling your flatbreads easier. Dust the surface with Rajgira Flour thoroughly before rolling the Bhakris. This will help the Bhakris to roll swiftly. Cook the Bhakris on Cast Iron Pan to get a beautiful char on the top.
