Trivia Tadka

Do you know that khakras originated as a part of the Jain Gujarati cuisine? In fact these thin crackers made from moth bean or wheat flour and oil are crispy delicious versions of rotis. Prepared in almost 30+ flavours including jeera, panipuri and pav bhaji to name a few, khakra is a must in any Gujarati household.

Ingredients

  • Whole wheat flour (atta) (2 cups)
  • Oil (1 tbsp)
  • Water (3/4 cup)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • MTR Lal Mirch/Red Chilli Powder (2 tsp)
  • MTR Haldi/Turmeric Powder (a pinch)
  • Cumin seeds (jeera) (2 tsp)
  • Asafoetida (hing) (a pinch)
  • Flavouring or spice powder (to taste)

Method

  • In a bowl, mix whole-wheat flour, salt, spices and knead it with water to make soft dough.
  • Make about 10–12 small pedas (balls) and keep them covered with a thin muslin cloth.
  • Roll out each peda into an extra thin flattened bread. Simultaneously, heat a tawa on low heat.
  • Cook each khakra on the heated tawa by pressing it down with a wooden press or if you can handle a thick piece of cloth folded. Doing so, will help to make the khakra crispy. Keep the tawa on slow heat all through. Cook until golden brown on both sides.
  • Once the khakras cool, you can store them in an airtight container.
  • Also, the crispy, delicious khakras can now be served with a chutney or pickle of your choice.
