In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, salt, cumin seeds, carom seeds, red chili powder, and turmeric powder.
Add the finely chopped onion, green chili, and coriander leaves to the dry mixture. Mix well to combine the ingredients evenly.
Pour in 2 tablespoons of ghee or oil and use your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Gradually add water in small increments, kneading the mixture until you obtain a smooth, pliable dough. Do not over-knead.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
Take one dough ball and flatten it slightly with your hands. Dust it lightly with whole wheat flour.
Using a rolling pin, roll the dough ball into a circle of about 5 to 6 inches in diameter, maintaining an even thickness across the entire disc.
Heat a non-stick tawa or frying pan over medium-high heat. Place the rolled out koki on the tawa.
Cook the koki for approximately 2 minutes on one side, or until light brown spots appear. Flip and cook the other side.
Drizzle a small amount of ghee or oil around the edges of the koki and press lightly with a spatula to cook evenly.
Continue cooking and flipping occasionally until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Repeat the rolling and cooking for the remaining dough portions. Serve hot with yogurt or pickles for a delicious sugar-free meal.
