Authentic Sindhi Koki

Sindhi koki - is one of the most famous dishes from Sindhi cuisine ,Sindhi Koki is a flatbread with a fabulous taste and interesting texture. It is a breakfast dish made out of wheat flour, gram flour, spices, onions and fresh herbs. This is most relished snack by Sindhi people, mostly eaten with butter,curd,pickle and papad.Grab some HOT CHAI and you will end up eating a quick fix, filling and most satisfying breakfast.

     Unlike a chapati or a paratha, that we usually eat, this is not very soft but is meant to be a little crunchy, chewy, and slightly hard.

     While the soft onions add a little sweet taste too it, the addition of coriander leaves makes it look a lot more attractive.Sindhi koki remains absolutely fresh for 24 hours without refrigeration.

     Because of this reason, Sindhi koki is the most preferred flat-bread that people generally carry for a picnic or travel.It also suits best for a perfect lunch box meal.
