Besan roti
Ingredients :
1 cup Atta / wheat flour or 150g
1/2 cup Besan / Gram flour or 55g
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp haldi / turmeric powder
133 ml wate
Method :
Take both the flours in a big bowl. Add salt and turmeric powder. mix well.
Add water slowly and knead into a semi soft dough. do not make it very soft like chappatis otherwise gram flour can become sticky and it will become difficult to roll them.
Knead until smooth. Cover with a plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let it rest for 10 mins.
Make 8 roundels from the dough. Also heat a griddle/ tawa on high flame to make your rotis.
Now start rolling the balls with the help of some dry flour to prevent it from sticking. Roll into a thin round shape similarly like you roll for chappatis.
Put the rolled out roti on the hot griddle. as soon as you see small bubbles turn the other side with a spatula. The first side of the roti should be less than half cooked. This is the side which will get fully cooked on direct flame
Now cook the other side until brown spots appear at the bottom or fully cooked. It will take just a few seconds about 10 to 12 seconds.
Immediately flip the roti on a direct high flame in a different burner. press with spatula in the center lightly until the roti puffs up like a ball(If using electrical burner then place a steel cooking rack on your burner).
Keep the roti on a plate lined with paper towel/ clean kitchen towel. Brush with ghee on top. This will enhance the flavor of gram flour and also keep the roti soft.
Similarly cook all the rotis , brush with ghee and stack on top of each other. Besan atta rotis are now ready to be served.
