Traditional Bakorkhani Recipe
*Ingredients:*
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup semolina (sooji)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup ghee or unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup milk (or as needed)
2 tablespoons poppy seeds (khus khus)
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/4 cup condensed milk (optional, for brushing)
1 tablespoon rose water (optional)
*Instructions:*
1. *Prepare the Dough:*
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, semolina, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
Add the melted ghee or butter and mix well until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the milk, a little at a time, and knead to form a soft dough. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more milk as needed.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
2. *Roll and Layer the Dough:*
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Divide the dough into small equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin circle or oval.
Sprinkle a small amount of poppy seeds and sesame seeds on top of each rolled-out dough piece. Fold the dough over itself multiple times to create layers, then roll it out again into a flat disc.
3. *Shape and Bake the Bakorkhani:*
Place the shaped Bakorkhani on the prepared baking sheet.
If using, brush the tops with condensed milk for a richer flavor and golden color.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the Bakorkhani turns golden brown and crisp.
4. *Finishing Touches:*
If desired, brush the freshly baked Bakorkhani with a bit of rose water for an aromatic finish.
Allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Tips:
*Layering:* Proper layering is key to achieving the traditional flaky texture of Bakorkhani.
*Storage:* Store Bakorkhani in an airtight container to maintain its crispness.
*Serving:* Enjoy Bakorkhani with a cup of tea or coffee.
This recipe captures the traditional essence of Bakorkhani, providing a delicious and authentic treat. Enjoy baking and savoring this delightful pastry!
