Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Rice flour
  • 2 Onions finely chopped
  • 1 Cup grated Bottle gourd(can be substituted by cucumber)
  • 1/4 cup grated Carrot
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped Coriander
  • 1/4 Cup Roasted,deskinned and slightly powdered peanuts
  • 1 tsp green chilli paste(Ground into a coarse mixture)
  • 1 tsp jeera
  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Mix the rice flour with all the ingredients properly with hand until everything is mixed properly.
  2. Now add enough warm water to make it into a semi solid dough as shown in picture.
  3. (Rice flour varies from place to place,if you feel that your rice flour is sticky then add warm water to make the dough which in turn helps to release the stickiness of the dough,it always help better).

  4. Take a handful of dough and make it into round balls of Orange size.
  5. Smear the Rotti tawa(Non-stick/normal dosa pan) with little bit of oil all over the tawa and place the rotti dough in center and press it gently with hands and spread into a thin layer by rotating the pan by immersing the hand in a bowl in between which helps in patting the dough evenly and smoothly on the tawa.Make it as thin as possible.do not bother if small gaps are there,that makes the rotti even crispier.
  6. Pour a spoon of oil over it and cover it with a lid and place it on fire on medium flame.Let it cook for 2 mins.Keep an eye on it to check in b/n whether it is done or not.Once you see the red patches started forming increase the flame and cook it.Try to rotate the tawa inorder to get an evenly roasted rotti.No need to turn it on the other side.
  7. Serve this right off from the flame and on to the plate with a dollop of fresh white butter and some Thokku(smashed pickle type generally made up of either mango or tomato).

  8. You can even serve it with masala dahi.
