MultiGrain Rotti

Who says healthy food is not tasty – Try this…
Rotti cannot get more nutritious than this one !
This is a mix of 4 different cereals and is really yummy when you eat it hot.

You could pack this for lunch too.

Ingredients

  • ½ Cup Rice Flour
  • ½ Cup Ragi Flour
  • ½ Cup Fine semolina
  • ½ Cup Maize (JoLa ) Flour
  • 2-3 Tsp Jeera /Cumin Seeds
  • 2 Medium onions finely chopped
  • 1-2 carrots grated
  • 6-8 Green chillies (paste)

  • Oil

Method
  1. Boil 2 cups of Water (1:1 of all the flours). Add salt and Jeera.
  2. Switch off the flame and add the flour Mixture.
  3. Mix thoroughly using a spatula (I use a thin rolling pin).
  4. Add green chilly paste, carrot,onions and coriander.Mix well with your hands.(Warning: hands will be messy!)
  5. Smear a little oil on a brown wrapping paper with a plastic sheet.Pat this mixture( size of a small orange) on a plastic sheet as thin as you would want.
  6. Transfer the Rotti onto a hot Tawa. Leave it on the tawa with the wrapping paper for a few seconds and then carefully take the sheet out.
  7. Dribble 1/2 tsp oil all over the rotti. Cover it and cook till one side is done.
  8. Reverse the rotti and cook till done.
  9. Serve hot with chutney or just like that.
