Sindhi koki recipe is a fabulous roti prepared with a dough of whole wheat flour perked up with a large array of flavour enhancers like onions and coriander to cumin seeds and pomegranate seeds.

To make traditional Sindhi koki, combine the whole wheat flour, onions, coriander, green chillies, jeera, anardana, ghee and salt in a deep bowl and knead into a stiff dough using enough water. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll out each portion into a 175 mm. (7") diameter circle using a little whole wheat flour for rolling and prick it using a fork. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle), grease it with ghee and cook each circle, on a slow flame, using ghee, till it turns golden brown in colour and crisp from both the sides. Serve the Sindhi koki hot.

While onions and other ingredients add flavour and crunch to the Sindhi koki, the seeds do a great job in raising the flavour to a much higher plane!

Let's see why we say this is a healthy Sindhi koki. The main ingredient of the roti is whole wheat flour. Whole wheat flour is excellent for diabetics as they will not shoot up your blood sugar levels as they are a low GI food. Raw onions used are a very valuable source of vitamin C – the immune building vitamin. Along with other phytonutrients from onions, it helps to build WBC (white blood cells) which serves as a line of defence against illness. If your diabetic, weight loss or have a heart issue, cut the quantity of the ghee used in the recipe as it has a high healthy fat level.

If you need to travel on a long journey, we have modified the traditional Sindhi koki recipe to enable the roti to last longer from a weeek to 15 days. See our recipe of Sindi koki for travelling.

Traditionally, Sindhi Koki is had for breakfast with curds and Aam aur Chane ka Achaar.

My daughter is a fussy and slow eater.... but whenever I make kokis she eats them quickly and she loves them any day of the week. My whole family loves kokis too with curd or pickle .

Grate some ginger to the ingredients. Instead of cumin seeds, put shahi jeera, which is so much flavorful. Instead if kneading dough with water, use milk. Serve with plain yoghurt with salt and black pepper.
