Rotti

ROTTI

Hi all,

I saw this recipe in one the websites while I was browsing through. Though it was mentioned as a Srilankdan dish, yet that was not the original preparation. That gave me an idea to prepare this dish and post.

This is a simple dish. But highly filling.

Ingredients:

maida flour - 2 cups

grated fresh coconut - 1 cup

vanaspathi / ghee (i used ghee) - 3 - 4 tsp

oil - to grease

water to make a dough

salt to taste

Method:

- add flour, coconut, ghee and salt and mix well

- to this sprinkle water and make into a tight dough

- allow that to sit for 20 mins

- take a handful of dough and roll into 1/2" thick rotti's

- heat a tava

- to that place the rolled rotti and allow that to coook in simmer

- grease them with oil and turn it to the other side

- slowly cook them and serve them hot

Side dishes : goes best with seeni sambal, maasi sambal and thengai sambal

(will be posting these recipes soon). I had this rotti with thengai sambal today.
