JOWAR BHAKRI


Bhakri (भाकरी bhākrī or Dhebra) is a round flat unleavened bread often used in the cuisine of western and central India, especially in the states of Rajasthan,GujaratMaharashtraMalwaGoa, and northern Karnataka. It is coarser than a roti.



Being a staple bread, bhakri is served with curd, chutney, vegetables, and rice. It is made mostly from wheat flour, jowar flour, bajra flour, nachni (or finger millet) flour, and even rice flour (in the Konkan region). Bhakris are made primarily with hot water, and flour. It has traditionally been the farmer's food  which would be carried to the farm to  make up for both breakfast and lunch.  It is also served with chutney or thecha (made out of green chillies and peanuts).  It is also served with Junka.  junka_29.html

Let us have a look at the recipe now.
