Bajre Ki Roti (Millet flour bread)
Ingredients
- 1.1 lb Millet flour bajre ka atta
- a pinch Salt
- 3 1/2 oz Ghee
- Coal fire to roast the roti
Instructions
- Sift the millet flour and salt together. Gradually add enough warm water and knead with greased palms to make a semi-soft dough. Knead the dough 5 minutes before making the roti.
- Divide the dough equally into lemon-sized portions. Flatten each portion with your palms pressing the edges together to make 5 - 6 inch.- diameter discs.This has to be done carefully so that the edges do not break. Avoid using the rolling pin.
- Heat a griddle (tawa); lay a disc flat on it and roast both sides. Then put it directly on a coal fire to make it crisp. Smear 2 tbsp ghee on the disc, crumple lightly between both palms and serve hot. Repeat with the other discs.
- Serve immediately with yoghurt, jaggery, onion, and sangar ka saag or lasan chutney.
