• 0.5 cup Chickpea flour (besan)
• 0.5 cup Rice flour
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 Green chilies, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Coriander leaves, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds (ajwain)
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Ghee or oil, for cooking

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free oat flour, chickpea flour, and rice flour.

Step 2

Add finely chopped onion, green chilies, and coriander leaves to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Mix in salt, carom seeds, cumin seeds, red chili powder, and turmeric powder.

Step 4

Gradually add warm water, starting with 0.5 cups, and mix everything until a soft dough forms. Add more water little by little if needed.

Step 5

Once the dough is ready, divide it into 8 equal parts and roll each into a ball.

Step 6

Flatten each dough ball between your palms, and then use a rolling pin to gently roll it into a small, thick circular disc about 5 inches in diameter.

Step 7

Preheat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat.

Step 8

Place one rolled koki on the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until you see bubbles forming on the surface.

Step 9

Flip the koki and drizzle a bit of ghee or oil around the edges and on top. Press gently with a spatula to cook evenly.

Step 10

Cook for another 1-2 minutes, flipping occasionally, until both sides are golden brown and crispy.

Step 11

Repeat the process for the remaining kokis.

Step 12

Serve hot with yogurt or pickles for a delightful gluten-free treat.
