Bhori is a traditional breakfast dish enjoyed by Sindhis. It is prepared by crumbling freshly cooked rotis and mixing them with butter and sugar. Children love this breakfast dish as it is loaded with their favorite butter. It is also easy to chew and has an interesting texture. Butter makes the roti soft and chewy, while the tiny sugar crystals add a little crunch to the dish and burst with sweetness on every bite. Bhori is a great way to add rotis to your child's diet, who may otherwise throw tantrums about eating roti with dal or sabzi. Many Sindhis fondly associate Bhori with their dreamy childhood memories.
The evergreen dish can be prepared quickly and requires just a few basic ingredients. It is best to eat Bhori while it is warm and fresh.

You can also adjust the quantity of butter and sugar based on your taste and preference. Click here to read the full step-by-step recipe.
If you do not want to use butter, you can also replace it with desi ghee. To bring out the flavor of the ghee, add a pinch of salt to your roti dough before cooking. Salt enhances the sweetness of the dish. You need not add salt if you are using regular butter, as it already contains salt.
