bhakri recipe | Gujarati Style Biscuit Bhakri | Kathiyawadi Bhakri | with 16 amazing images
bhakri recipe is typically biscuit-like bread flavoured with ghee and cumin seeds. The Kathiyawadi Bhakri is popular in Maharastra and Gujarat cuisine.
Generally, there are two types of bhakhris—one is Gujarati Style Biscuit Bhakri while the other is puffed up whole wheat bhakri recipe served with ghee.
I would like to share 4 important tips to make the perfect bhakri recipe. 1. Gradually add water to knead into a stiff dough. If the dough becomes soft then the bhakris will not become crispy like biscuit. My grandmother makes use of milk to knead the Gujarati bhakri dough. 2. With the help of a rolling pin rollGujarati Style Biscuit Bhakri into a 100 mm. (4”) diameter thick circle. It should be thicker than paratha. If the edges crack too much when you roll the bhakri then you may need to add some water or milk additionally to make the dough little smooth. 3. Once rolled, make small groves evenly over the rolled Gujarati bhakri using the edge of the rolling pin, as shown here. By doing so the bhakri will cook uniformly. 4. Keep flipping theGujarati bhakri every 30 seconds to 1 minute and pressing it with the khakhra press till golden brown spots appear on both the sides and it turns crispy. It would take around 8-9 minutes for a Gujarati bhakri (Kathiyawadi Bhakri Recipe | Gujarati Style Biscuit Bhakri recipe) to be cooked completely. If you cook the bhakris on a high flame you will notice that brown spots will appear very quickly, but it will be under cooked from inside.
If you plan to take Kathiyawadi Bhakri along when travelling, make them smaller and crispier. In any case, apply pressure when cooking so that the insides get cooked evenly.
Serve the bhakri immediately off the tava with Trevti Dal.
