In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, finely chopped onion, chopped cilantro, chopped green chili, cumin seeds, salt, and red chili powder.
Add the low-fat plain yogurt to the dry ingredients and mix well.
Gradually add water to the mixture, kneading it into a smooth dough. The dough should be firm but pliable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized portions and shape them into balls.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin flat disc, about 6 inches in diameter. Ensure the kokis are not too thick as they need to cook thoroughly.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with a small amount of olive oil.
Place one rolled koki onto the skillet and cook until light brown spots appear on the underside, about 1-2 minutes.
Flip the koki and brush the top lightly with a little more olive oil. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are evenly cooked and slightly crispy.
Remove the koki from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining dough portions.
Serve the low-fat Sindhi kokis warm, paired with yogurt or a chutney of your choice.
