The spicy and delicious condiment that peps up mealtimes! Simple to make Gun Powder Chutney uses flax seeds as one of the ingredients. How else do I feed the reluctant family flax seeds?

Methi Khakhra
My idea of bliss in the rains especially now that I can sit at home and relax on the bean bag as I watch the rains. Now that I am supposed to be off pickles I khakhra enjoy with tea.

I am ready with my Khakhras but where is the rain? Waiting for it to rain so impatiently. June is the month when it pours in Goa, bhajia, soups and hot tea are the general food we enjoy but this year the rains are playing hide and seek.
Praying it starts raining soon as more than man it is the animals that are suffering. Please keep a small bowl of water for the birds, animals to drink.
Coming to khakhras, let us start with the basic question
Khakhras are thin handmade flatbreads cooked on a tawa/skillet until they are crisp. Khakhras nothing but crackers as they are called in the West.
Khakhras are common are eaten by the Jain community, Gujarati and Rajasthani communities, these people are vegetarians, The Jains especially have many diet restrictions. they are consumed as breakfast or even as a snack.
Khakhras are basically made from whole wheat flour, oil. But there are varieties like methi, bajri, jeera/cumin, pudina, garlic, methi, ajwain, green chilli, pav bhaji masala, red chilli, pain puri flavoured. Apparently, there are nacho flavoured ones too but I am to come across one of them.
Make the khakhras and let them cool completely before packing them in an air-tight box.

Come on let us make them. They are easy to make.
Okay let us make things clear I had stopped making chapatti, fulkas, parathas. In general making flatbreads the reason I have a lady who makes them for the last say 15-20 years.
So over the period my skills, mediocre skills have become non-existent. For the last 1-month madam is on leave and I am making chapatis, fulkas etc. so if I am saying they are easy they are.
I have made Freshly Baked Methi Crackers| Baked Methi Mathri #Bread Bakers.
My love for methi leaves is tremendous checkout (to name a few)

Today is Monday and FoodieMondayBlogHop day. This is our 200th-week edition and we are doing the Robin Round. Which means each one cooks from a blogger that we are paired with.
I am paired with Aruna who blogs at Vasusvegkitchen. Recently Aruna had blogged pickle with dosakai but then since I am told to lay off pickles I decided not to make them. But rest assured I plan to make it. Some of Aruna’s posts that I want to try are Ragi Puttu among others.
