Khakhra

🇮🇳 Indian

The teatime ritual: khakhra with chai, the kind of snack that disappears before it cools. Gives you a proper meal in 45 minutes.

Prep 20 min Cook 25 min Serves 4 Medium

  • Mustard Seeds1 tsp
  • Curry Leaves1 sprig
  • Baking Powder1/2 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make a smooth, pourable batter with the flours, yogurt, turmeric and salt.

  2. 2

    Cook on low, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a glossy paste — 6-8 minutes of patience.

  3. 3

    Spread thin on a greased sheet, cool slightly, then roll into tight spirals.

  4. 4

    Temper mustard seeds and curry leaves; pour over the rolls and finish with coconut and cilantro.

Chef's tip

Whisk the batter until you cannot feel a single lump — lumps become dumplings.
