Khoba Roti |
Method
Take a bowl add wheat flour,salt,turmeric powder,red chilly powder,coriander leaves,ajwain & ghee.Mix it well till it resembles like bread crumbs.
Now slowly pour water little by little to form a firm dough.Apple little ghee on top cover & rest it for 5 minutes.
You can divide the dough into two or just roll out to one roti.
Roll this dough to a semi thick disc about 1/2'' thick.
Take a knife and make cuts on one side of the roti.
Place this roti on a tawa and in medium low heat cook,when the dough is still raw on top pinch the dough fully to make a pattern ( see the picture).
Once the bottom is light brown flip to the other side & cook till light brown.
Lastly you can directly place it on the gas flame or use a wire mesh for a minute to get a slight colour to your roti ( This step is optional ).
Remove it on a plate & pour 2 to 3 tsp of ghee on the holes of the roti.
Serve them hot with Dal or Raita.
Note:
a) Without spices you can also make plain khoba roti.
b) Grated garlic or kasturi methi can also be added for extra flavour.
