Jowar or Sorghum flour is made by grinding small round grains of jowar(white millet)/sorghum plant. It is called jowar in India. Bhakri is most common and popular in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat and Goa. In our Konkan, bhakri is mainly served with fish curry.
Roti/Bhakri is prepared by mixing flour with hot water and then flattening it by hand. You can also roll the dough ball first with a rolling pin and then flatten it by hand.

While the dough is still warm, soak your hands in water and knead into a smooth stiff dough. After kneading, the dough will become soft. Then make balls of 9-10 equal size to make rotis.

If you are making rotis using a rolling pin. Sprinkle some dry jowar flour on the rolling surface and on the dough ball. Roll the dough balls like a roti. Then lightly flattened by using wet fingers.
