Mix together 2 cups of Bajra Flour, salt, and warm water to form a firm but pliable dough.

Place one ball of dough on the dusted surface.
Using your fingers, press the dough ball into a 5" circle. Moisten your hand, if required.
Place the Bhakri onto the hot tava.
Dip your hand in water and moisten the surface to the bhakri. You could also sprinkle a few drops of water and spread on the surface of the bhakri.
