Directions : Ragi roti/nachni roti Recipe
STEP 1. Mix everything with a spoon.
STEP 2.Add 1.5 cups of hot boiling water. You can heat water in a pan or in an electric kettle.
STEP 3.Mix with a spoon. After mixing wait for a few minutes till the heat is enough to handle.
STEP 4.Then begin to knead when the mixture is still hot. Once you are able to form the dough, then keep on sprinkling warm water bit by bit and knead till you get a soft dough.
STEP 5. The dough should be soft. Cover and let the dough rest for 20 minutes
STEP 6.Then make medium sized balls from the dough.
STEP 7.Flatten the ball. Sprinkle some whole wheat flour or ragi flour on the dough ball. Turn on the gas stove and put the tawa to make it hot. The tawa has to be sufficiently hot to make soft rotis.
STEP 8.While tawa is getting hot, start rolling the dough ball into a flat round circle. Add more flour if required, so that while rolling the dough does not break.
STEP 9. Place the ragi roti on the hot tawa. Keep the flame to high.
STEP 10. First roast one side. It should be less than half cooked or about one-fourth cooked. Then flip the roti. Turn and cook the other side.
STEP 11.Now hold the roti with tongs and keep the first side which was cooked, directly on the fire. Keep on moving roti with the tongs roasting the edges as well.
STEP 12.The roti will start to puff.
STEP 13.When the roti has puffed well, then turn and keep the other side on fire and roast ragi roti for some seconds. Avoid burning the rotis and also don’t overdo the fire roasting as then these ragi rotis become dense.
STEP 14.Remove and place them in a roti basket/roti dabba or casserole.
