Prep Amaranth: Thoroughly wash the red amaranth leaves in a large basin of water 2-3 times to remove all grit. Drain completely in a colander and then chop them roughly. Set aside.
Prepare Tadka: Heat oil in a kadai or wide pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the mustard seeds and let them splutter, which takes about 30 seconds. Add the cumin seeds and asafoetida, and sauté for another 10-15 seconds until fragrant.
Sauté Aromatics: Add the finely chopped garlic and slit green chilies. Sauté for about a minute until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until it turns soft and translucent.
Cook the Bhaji: Add the turmeric powder and give it a quick stir. Immediately add all the chopped amaranth leaves and salt. Mix well to combine with the tadka. The leaves will start to wilt almost immediately.
Steam and Finish: Cover the pan and cook on a low to medium flame for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. The leaves will cook in their own moisture; do not add any water.
Garnish and Serve: Once the leaves are tender, uncover the pan. Add the fresh grated coconut and a squeeze of lemon juice. Mix well and cook for one more minute. Serve hot with chapati, bhakri, or as a side with dal and rice.
Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, mix together the jowar flour and salt. Gradually pour in the hot water while mixing with a spoon. The water should be hot but manageable to touch. Once the flour comes together, knead it with the heel of your palm for 5-7 minutes until you get a smooth, soft, and pliable dough. It should not be sticky. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into equal portions.
Pat the bhakri: Take one portion of the dough and roll it into a smooth ball. Sprinkle some dry jowar flour on a clean, flat surface or a chakla (rolling board). Place the dough ball on the floured surface and gently flatten it with your palm. Using your fingers and palm, start patting the dough, rotating it simultaneously to form an even, thin circle of about 5-6 inches in diameter. Dust with more flour as needed to prevent sticking.
Cook the bhakri: Heat a cast iron tawa or griddle over medium-high heat. It should be hot before you place the bhakri on it. Carefully lift the patted bhakri and place it on the hot tawa. Sprinkle a little water on the top surface and spread it evenly with your fingers. Cook for about 1 minute, until the water evaporates and the top looks dry. Flip the bhakri and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, until light brown spots appear. Using tongs, lift the bhakri and place it directly on a medium flame. It will puff up like a balloon. Flip and cook the other side on the direct flame for a few seconds. Avoid burning it. Repeat the process for all the remaining dough balls.
Serve the Jowar Bhakri immediately, smearing a little ghee on top if you like.
