Ingredients
- 2 cups Rice flour
- 1.5 cups Water
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by boiling 1.5 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, add the salt to it.
Step 2
Slowly add the rice flour into the boiling water, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Step 3
Once all the flour is added, turn off the heat and allow the mixture to cool down slightly until it's comfortable to handle with your hands.
Step 4
Grease your hands lightly with the oil. Knead the warm rice dough gently until it becomes smooth and pliable.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Step 6
On a clean surface or using a rolling board, flatten each rice ball by pressing it with your palms or roll it out gently using a rolling pin, until it's about 1/8 inch thick. You can use a little rice flour to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Heat a non-stick skillet or a tava over medium heat.
Step 8
Carefully place one rolled bhakari onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until light brown spots appear and it puffs up slightly.
Step 9
Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.
Step 10
Serve the low fat rice bhakari warm with your choice of curry or chutney.
