This black pepper flatbread sounds healthy and flavorful . Perfect tea time treat. Homemade snacks are the best.
Thank you Poonam, this is our traditional breakfast recipe
I have heard a lot about Sindhi Koki but never made it myself. Thank you for the detailed recipe – I am going to give it a try some time soon.
I am sure you would love it for breakfast Pavani. Thank you for stopping by.
Lata how similar various regional cuisines are. What you call koki we call bhakri. Authentic bhakri is made the way you’ve made the kali mirch ki koki, where the dough is hard and it has biscuit like texture. We sometimes add jeera to it. Tastes so delicious with masala tea.
Indeed Mayuri, I so very well can relate with bhakhti as Gujarat being my birth place.
Thank you for writing in.

I have heard of Sindhi Koki but never tried it. This kali mirch one looks and sounds even more interesting to try
Thank you Sapana.
Thank you for sharing your recipe. I want to know can we make this koki and courier it to our kids in U,.S.
How long you can keep it out.
Hello Karuna. You can make this koki in advance but it might turn soggy as it depends on the way you have stored it.
I wouldn’t suggest to courier it as this has a shelf life of maximum 1 or 2 days. Moreover it uses milk for kneading, so it won’t last long. Hope this helps.
