Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and semolina.
Add finely chopped onion, green chilies, and coriander leaves to the mixture.
Mix in the cumin seeds, carom seeds, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt.
Add 3 tablespoons of oil to the mixture and mix well until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Gradually add water, little by little, and knead into a firm dough. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Divide the dough into small equal portions and shape them into balls.
Roll each ball into a thick disc of about 5-6 inches in diameter using a rolling pin. Use a little flour for dusting if needed.
Heat a griddle or tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled koki on the heated tawa.
Cook for 1-2 minutes until small bubbles begin to appear, then flip.
Add a little oil or ghee around the edges and on top. Press gently with a spatula.
Cook on both sides until golden brown and crispy, ensuring even cooking.
Serve hot with yogurt, pickle, or any chutney of your choice.
