Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Chickpea flour (Besan)
- 50 grams Lentil flour (optional: split red lentils or any available)
- 150 grams Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 200 milliliters Water
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Cooking oil for greasing the pan
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, lentil flour, and whole wheat flour.
Add salt and cumin seeds to the flour mixture, and mix well.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the olive oil.
Gradually add water while mixing with your hands or a spoon to form a soft dough. It should be pliable but not sticky; adjust water as necessary.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes to allow the flours to hydrate.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball into a thin disc about 6 inches in diameter using a rolling pin.
Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little cooking oil.
Place a rolled roti onto the skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the surface.
Flip the roti and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until you see golden brown spots.
Repeat the process for the remaining dough balls, stacking the cooked rotis in a warm place.
Serve hot with your choice of curry or as a standalone healthy bread wrap.
