Mixed Flour Roti

When I first started making jowar rotis, I had a tough time with them. They always used to break. So I used a cheat method to make them. I used to mix a little wheat flour so that I could roll them out without any difficulty. Using the same idea here...

Ingredients

Jowar flour - 1/2 cup

Bajra flour - 1/2 cup

Wheat flour - 1/2 cup

Spinach - 1 cup (finely chopped)

Green chillies - 3 (finely chopped)

Cumin - 1 tsp ( coarsely ground)

Oil - 2 tsp

Water

Salt

Steps

1. Mix all the flours well. If possible, sieve them together. Add the remaining ingredients except spinach and knead well. Rest the dough for 15 minutes. Divide into equal portions.

2. Take one portion of dough and roll roll it a little bit. Put some spinach in the center and close it with the rolled out portion. Now roll again into an even and thin roti. Remove any air bubbles by pricking with a fork.

3. Heat a pan and cook the roti on both sides.

Serving ideas

Rub a little butter over the roti and serve with any curry or chutney. These rotis are also good with raita

Tips

You can also add chickpea flour to the dough.

If you want to add vegetables to the dough, make sure you add a binding flour like wheat or all purpose flour.

To evenly cook the roti, use a cloth to press down the roti and keep rotating it.
