Ingredients

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 1 medium Green chili, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (coriander) leaves, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Crushed coriander seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds (ajwain)
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.75 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, finely chopped onion, green chili, fresh cilantro leaves, crushed coriander seeds, carom seeds, and black pepper powder.

Step 2

Mix the dry ingredients well to ensure even distribution of spices.

Step 3

Add olive oil to the flour mixture and start incorporating it using your fingers. The mixture should become crumbly.

Step 4

Gradually add water while kneading the dough. The dough should be smooth but firm. Avoid adding too much water at once.

Step 5

Once the dough is ready, cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape them into balls.

Step 7

Roll each ball into a flat disc about 6 inches in diameter using a rolling pin, dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat.

Step 9

Place one rolled disc onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes until the underside has brown spots.

Step 10

Flip the koki and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking.

Step 11

Repeat the process with the remaining dough portions.

Step 12

Serve hot with plain yogurt or a side of your choice. Enjoy your low sodium Sindhi koki!
