Ragi Bhakri is an ever-popular Maharashtrian bread that is homely and satiating. Here, bhakri transforms into a scrumptious chivda with a dash of spice powders and taste-enhancing ingredients like ginger, garlic and green chillies.
A tempering of mustard and cumin seeds boosts the aroma, while a basket of veggies makes the Ragi Bhakri Chivda even more sumptuous and tasty. This quick and tasty snack can be made with leftover bhakri also.
Try your hand at more such nachni-based dishes like Nachni Dosa and Mini Nachni Pancake .
