In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, finely chopped onion, green chilies, and coriander leaves.
Add cumin seeds, carom seeds, turmeric powder, black pepper powder, and salt to the mixture and mix well.
Add 2 tablespoons of vegan ghee or coconut oil to the mixture. Using your hands, rub the oil into the flour until it resembles a crumbly texture.
Gradually add water to the flour mixture and start kneading to form a stiff dough. The dough should not be too soft but rather firm.
Cover the dough and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each into a ball.
Dust a rolling surface with a little flour and roll each ball into a thick disc, about 6 inches in diameter. Make sure it is slightly thick as traditional koki is not rolled thin.
Heat a skillet or tava over medium heat. Place the rolled disc on it and cook for about 2 minutes or until light brown spots appear on the bottom.
Flip the koki, apply a little vegan ghee or coconut oil, and press down lightly with a spatula, and cook for another 2 minutes.
Flip the koki once more, apply a little more vegan ghee or oil and cook each side until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve the vegan Sindhi kokis hot with vegan yogurt or pickle.
