Prepare the Dough

Mix Dry Ingredients:

• Start by combining 1 cup of whole wheat flour and ½ teaspoon of salt in a large bowl.
• Next, add 1 tablespoon of oil and mix it until you blend everything evenly.

Add Water and Knead:

• Gradually add small amounts of water while mixing to create a soft, not too sticky or dry dough. Once it's ready, cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Prepare the Masala

• To prepare the spices, first heat a small pan over medium heat. Then, add 1 tablespoon of cumin seeds, followed by 1 tablespoon of coriander seeds, and finally, include 1 teaspoon of ajwain. This combination will enhance the flavor beautifully!
• Roast them for 2-3 minutes until they smell nice, but be careful not to burn them. Let them cool, then grind them into a fine powder.
• Next, mix this with 1 teaspoon of red chili powder. Additionally, add ½ teaspoon of turmeric for color and health benefits. Then, include 1 teaspoon of garam masala to enhance the flavor, and finally, add 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds for a nice crunch. This blend will make your dish extra tasty!

Roll and Cook the Khakhra

• After resting, divide the dough into 6-8 pieces and roll each into a thin circle, about 6-8 inches wide.
• Sprinkle the prepared masala on top and gently press it into the dough.
• Heat a tava (griddle) over medium heat, then cook the dough for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing down to make it crispy. Flip until both sides are golden brown.

Cool and Store:

• Finally, place the cooked Khakhra on a wire rack to cool, which keeps it crispy. Once it's cool, store it in an airtight container.
