    Rajgira Bhakri | Amaranth Flour Flat Bread | Vrat Recipe

    Published On October 11, 2021 by Aayushi Patel This Post May Contain Affiliate Links

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    Rajgira (amaranth) is popularly used in our homes on fasting days. And Rajgira Bhakris and Sheero is always a must-have on the table. This delicious Gluten- Free Bhakris are made with warm spices and fresh aromatics. Have you ever tried these flat bread? If you haven't. you definitely should give them a try.

    Rajgira Bhakri

    What Is Rajgira?

    Rajgira flour comes from the seeds of the Amaranth Plant. This flour has not only a very earthy and delicious taste but is also packed with nutrients. One of the main benefits of including Rajgira it helps control insulin resistance. Packed with protein and fiber, this flour has tremendous benefitting health properties.

    What Are Amaranth Flour Bhakris?

    Bhakris were originated in the state of Maharashtra, India. Traditionally Bhakris are made using all kinds of flours. This flatbread is made by kneading a tight dough, and then rolling them flat. Toasting them on both sides until charred with a little bit of oil, they are filling and delicious.

    Amaranth flour has a very earthy taste. With the warm flavors of cumin seeds, and spiced with green chilies and ginger, this bhakri tastes extraordinarily delicious.

    Are These Vegan and Gluten-Free?

    Yes, absolutely. The Rajgira Bharis are both vegan and gluten-free. If you are someone, who needs a quick fix for gluten- free flatbreads, you will love this one. It tastes absolutely delicious.

    Ingredients to Make Rajgira Bhakri

    Amaranth Flour - The key ingredient to make the Rajgira Bhakris, is Rajgira Atta aka Amaranth Flour. You get this easily in your nearest Indian Store, Amazon and at Wholefoods. If you are buying it from Indian Store I get Deep Indian Kitchen Rajgira Atta, it is very fine and smooth in texture, which works perfectly for these Bhakris.

    Peanut Oil - Peanut Oil adds a beautiful nutty taste to this bhakri, which complements perfectly with its own earthy taste. Use any nutty oil to make this bhakri for that extra punch of flavor.

    Cumin Seeds - The warm spice of cumin is going to work perfectly to balance the flavors of the Rajgira Bhakri. It is just a wonderful spice to add, isn't it?

    Ginger and Green Chili Paste - Now that we have been adding all the warm and earthy notes to our Bhakri, this punch is necessary. To take it up a notch, these spiced flatbreads are going to be the highlight of your meal.

    Kashmiri Red Chili Powder - I like to add some Kashmiri red chili powder in the flour. The Rajgira Flour is Light Brown in color. To make the Chapatis an even tone of darkish brown, the red chili powder will set the tone right.

    Chopped Cilantro - The freshness of chopped cilantro adds a refreshing flavor, making these absolutely scrumptious.

    Salt - Salt brings the recipe to life. If you are fasting you can you sindhav namak or rock salt. These are also easily available in the Indian Store.

    Water - We will be using little water at a time to knead the dough.

    Tips to Make Perfect Rajgira Bhakris

    • Since Amaranth Flour is Gluten- Free, the dough needs to be kneaded carefully. The dough shouldn't be to less or more moist. We use the water one splash at a time, just to bring the dough together. A little water goes a long way. For 3 Cups of Flour I used 1 cup of Water.
    • Cover with a damp cloth and let the dough rest for 30 mins.
    • If you are making these for the first time, and are not fasting add 1 Tbsp of Besan. It will make the dough more easier to roll into flatbreads.
    • If you are fasting, andn making these bhakris for the first time, addingone small mashed boiled potato to the flour. Adjust the spices accordingly. And start kneading the dough. This will also make rolling your flatbreads easier.
    • Dust the surface with Rajgira Flour thoroughly before rolling the Bhakris. This will help the Bhakris to roll swiftly.
    • Cook the Bhakris on Cast Iron Pan to get a beautiful char on the top.

    • You want to keep about a 1/3 inch of thickness for the bhakris.
    • Once rolled add the bhakri to the hot pan. Toast it on either sides. And then add oil on the top and toast on either sides once again.
    • Repeat until all the bhakris are made.

3. Preheat the Air Fryer on Roast setting for 400F for 1 minute.
4. Air fry the idlis in 2 batches, Add the idlis in a single layer and roast them at 400F for 12 mins. Give it a shake at 6 mins mark to make sure idlis crisp evenly.

    • Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story. 

I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side. 

I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU. 

So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten  better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

    • Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious! 

📌Recipe📌

🌱 For the Curry Base

• 1 Tbsp Oil
• 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
• 2 Green Cardamoms
• 1 Bay Leaf
• 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
• 1 Dried Red Chili
• 1 Medium Onion Sliced
• 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
• 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
• 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
• 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
• 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 8-10 Cashews

For The Curry

• 2 Tbsp Butter
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder 
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
• 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
• 1 Tsp Garam Masala
• 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
• Adjust Salt if needed

📌 step by step📌

1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown. 
3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften. 
4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base. 
5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency. 
6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt. 
7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft. 
8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
9. Serve hot!

    • Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again. 

“You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“ 

If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.

    I am using 6 leftover idlis, and for it I used 1 Tbsp oil. Lay them in a single layer in the air fryer, this will help them crisp up evenly.

    1. Cut the leftover idlis into equal sized wedges.
    2. Add them to a mixing bowl and add oil. Mix it with your hands.
    3. Preheat the Air Fryer on Roast setting for 400F for 1 minute.
    4. Air fry the idlis in 2 batches, Add the idlis in a single layer and roast them at 400F for 12 mins. Give it a shake at 6 mins mark to make sure idlis crisp evenly.

    Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story.

    I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side.

    I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU.

    So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

    Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious!

    📌Recipe📌

    🌱 For the Curry Base

    • 1 Tbsp Oil
    • 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
    • 2 Green Cardamoms
    • 1 Bay Leaf
    • 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
    • 1 Dried Red Chili
    • 1 Medium Onion Sliced
    • 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
    • 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
    • 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
    • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
    • 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
    • 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
    • 1 Tsp Salt
    • 8-10 Cashews

    For The Curry

    • 2 Tbsp Butter
    • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder
    • 1 Tsp Salt
    • 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
    • 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
    • 1 Tsp Garam Masala
    • 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
    • Adjust Salt if needed

    📌 step by step📌

    1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown.
    3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften.
    4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base.
    5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency.
    6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt.
    7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft.
    8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
    9. Serve hot!

    Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again.

    “You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“

    If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.
