Rice Roti

Rice Roti/ Rice bread/ Tandlachi bhakri

“Rice Bhakri” is a type of bread in the Konkani/ Malvani cuisine.

Now-a-days, pick any Konkani-Goan restaurant’s menu card , you will find Rice Bhakri as one of the most preferred bread items. The coastal region has wide variety of fish and seafood that is available in abundance, so Konkani cuisine is all about their celebrated love for Rice and Fish. Bhakri made from rice is also a part of this rich culinary heritage.

The most important health benefit is that it is totally oil free. It doesn’t need oil neither while kneading the dough nor while cooking.

It seems to be hard to make these bhakris, But I would say it is very simple yet delicious and a gem of Konkani/Goan Cuisine.

You can have this bhakri/roti with Pithale, Jhunka, Gravy of any Bean varieties or Lentil gravy, also Chicken or Fish Curry would be too awesome
