multigrain bhakri recipe | healthy multi flour bhakri | 3 flour bhakri | crispy bhakri without oil is a nourishing Indian fare. Learn how to make healthy multi flour bhakri.
To make multigrain bhakri, healthy multi flour bhakri combine all the ingredients in a deep glass bowl. Add 1/2 cup hot water. This prevents the ragi flour and bajra flour from breaking. Knead into a dough. We added another 1/4 cup hot water to make the dough. Total hot water used is 3/4 cup. No resting required for the dough. Divide into 8 and roll out a portion into a 125 mm. (5") diameter thick circle. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle), place the bhakri on it and cook it on a high flame for 20 to 30 seconds and then flip and cook the other side. Then cook on a medium flame while putting pressure on the bhakri with a muslin cloth or wooden khakhra press till brown spots appear on one side. Flip it over and cook on the other side also till brown spots appear. Keep flipping the 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 4 to 5 minutes to cook. To make extra crisp multigrain bhakri, on a high flame, take a pair of tongs (chimata) further cook the bhakri for 15 to 20 seconds. This will give you a nice crisp bhakri with the edges burnt a bit. Remember to rotate the bhakri over the fire or keep flipping the bhakri to cook both sides. You need to rotate or flip otherwise the bhakri will get excessively burnt.
