Preparation Method: Crispy Sorghum Bites
- Prepare the Dough
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl. Gradually add water and knead well to form a smooth, firm dough.
- Rest the Dough
Cover the dough and place it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. This helps improve texture and makes rolling easier.
- Roll the Dough
Divide the dough into small portions. Roll each portion into large, thin pooris using a rolling pin.
- Shape the Bites
Cut the raw pooris into squares or diamond shapes using a knife or pizza cutter.
- Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven at 250°C for 20 minutes to ensure even baking.
- Bake to Perfection
Place the shaped sorghum bites on a baking tray and bake at 250°C for 25 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
- Cool & Serve
Allow the bites to cool completely. They will become crispier as they cool. Serve as a healthy snack with tea or store in an airtight container.
