Healthy Jowar Roti (Easy method to prepare for beginners)

 

1. Take 1 cup of water in a vessel, add some salt and bring it to boil.

2. Take 1 cup jowar flour with the same cup. Here I took 100g flour which will make 4 Rotis.

3. Put the flame to low and slowly add the jowar flour into boiling water  and mix with a spatula.

4. Keep smashing it and ensure that there are no lumps. You can add 1 or 2 tsp additional boiling water if needed.

5. Now switch off the flame and put a lid on the vessel and leave it for 10 mins. This will make the dough to get softer and will be easy to roll with rolling pin.

6. After 10 min, take the dough in a plate mash it well with your hands while the dough is warm and divide it into 4 portions.

7. Take one portion of the dough, and start rolling it with rolling pin by dusting with some wheat flour.

8. Now heat a pan and put the roti on the pan and when it starts getting slight bubbles, take a small cotton cloth and dip it in cold water and apply water all over the top side of the roti with that cloth. This step is very important to ensure rotis are very soft.

9. Now flip the roti on the second side. No need to apply water this side and cook until its done.

10. Serve hot with any curry of your choice.
