Kakra - Italiano (Healthy Snack - 3)


Kakra Italiano
Ingridients :-
  1. Wheat flour - 1 cup
  2. Salt to taste
  3. Ghee - 1 tbsp (optional)
  4. Italian mixed herb & spices - 2 tsp(available in the market)
  5. Water to knead the dough
  6. Kitchen towel
Procedure :-
  • Mix wheat flour, Italian spices & herbs (this comes with salt hence adust and add salt to dough accordingly), ghee (optional), and salt. 
  • Knead the wheat flour like you do for chapathis and keep it aside for 30 minutes. 
  • If not using ghee, then add few drops of oil and apply all over the dough and then rest it for 30 minutes.
  • Make small balls out of it. 
  • Flatten each ball on a board using a rollingpin. Spread it very thin with occassional dusting of wheat flour to prevent it from sticking to the board. 
  • Heat tawa, then turn the flame to medium.
  • Fold the kitchen towel & keep it ready
  • Cook the flattened thin chapathi. When it is partially cooked (to prevent it from sticking), keep pressing & rolling it with the kitchen towel till the side is crispy.When done, flip sides and cook. 
  • Keep on pressing all over the chapathi with the kitchen towel. Though it raises, gradually it will settle down and become paper thin.
  • Home made fresh, thin, cripsy and healthy Italian Herbs Kakra is ready!!! :-)
Serving Suggestion : for a variation, you can sprinkle cheese powder mixed with oregano & thyme on top of it before serving.

  1. Mira such an unusual fusion recipe! You asked me about craft punches- it is available in many stationary shops - you just have to keep looking. Where in India are you- if I know I can guide you perhaps
    Cheers
