Dhebra is a traditional Gujarati snack, which is a spiced millet flat bread. Dhebras are either deep fried like pakodas or they are rolled into small tikkis and pan fried. I have tried the second variation here. Dhebras can be made in huge batches and taken as a travel snack and can be had as such or with any pickle of your choice.
- INGREDIENTS:
- Whole wheat flour - 1 cup
- Bajra flour (millet flour) - 1/3 cup
- Sour Curd - 1/2 cup
- Jaggery - 1 Tbsp
- Ginger-garlic paste - 2 Tsp
- Cumin seeds powder - 1/2 Tsp
- Turmeric powder - 1/4 Tsp
- Red chilli powder - 1/4 Tsp
- Salt - as needed
- Kasoori Methi - 2 Tbsp (even finely chopped fresh fenugreek/methi leaves can be added)
- Oil - 2 Tbsp
- Oil - for pan fry
METHOD:
- Combine sour curd and jaggery and mix very well to avoid any lumps
- Add in all the spices and mix well. Keep aside
- Add 2 Tbsp of oil to the flour and mix well till oil is well incorporated into the flour
- Pour in the spiced curd mixture and make a soft dough without adding water
- Knead well and drizzle few drops of oil over the dough. Cover and allow it to rest for 20 minutes
- Divide them into small balls and roll into small thick rotis/tikkis
- Pan fry them on both sides with very little oil
- Enjoy the flavorful dhebras as such or with any pickle of your choice!
