* Instructions
To knead surati bhakri dough
In a mixing bowl take wheat flour. Wheat flour must be coarsely grounded for bhakri.
Now add 1 tbsp of oil and 1/2 tsp salt. Add salt as per your taste.
Mix well oil with wheat flour using hand.
By adding little water at time knead the bhakri dough. Knead properly the dough so that the bhakri will become softer.
The dough for bhakri should be a little harder than regular Roti / Chappati dough.
Dough for surati bhakri is ready. Let us roll and roast bhakri from dough now.
To Roast Surati bhakri on tawa
Divide the wheat bhakri dough in round balls. The size of bhakri dough ball should be bigger than the roti dough balls.
Take one bhakri dough ball on rolling board (chakla) and roll in round dish shape using rolling pin (belan). Bhakri should be thicker than normal paratha.
Roll evenly so that the thickness is even across bhakri.
Heat a tawa/skillet.Once the tawa is hot place the rolled bhakri and roast it.
Apply oil and then flip to other side and press with help of frying spoon till it becomes golden brown.
Bhakri is ready once it is evenly roasted from both side.
Bhakri is ready to serve.
Repeat the process for remaining bhakri dough.
Surati bhakri is ready. Serve bhakri hot with a cup of tea or with sabji like sev tamatar, aloo sabji, aloo baingan sabji etc.
