Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g All-purpose flour
- 50 g Chickpea flour
- 100 ml Coconut milk
- 200 ml Water
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Turmeric powder
- 1 small, finely chopped Onion
- 1 finely chopped Green chili
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 tbsp Oil
- 2 tbsp, chopped Fresh coriander leaves
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, chickpea flour, and salt. Mix well.
Gradually add water and coconut milk to the flour mixture, stirring constantly to form a smooth, pliable dough. You may need to adjust the water quantity slightly to achieve the desired dough consistency.
Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until elastic and smooth. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 15 minutes.
In another bowl, mix chickpea flour with turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Add water slowly to create a smooth, batter-like consistency. This will serve as the 'egg' component.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, green chili, and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent.
Add the sautéed mixture to the chickpea batter and stir well to combine.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each one into a ball. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a thin, round flatbread.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and brush lightly with oil. Place one rolled dough onto the pan.
Quickly spread 1/4 of the chickpea batter mixture over the roti, followed by a sprinkle of chopped coriander leaves. Fold the roti over to encase the filling.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the roti is golden brown and slightly crisp.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough and chickpea mixture.
Serve hot with a side of vegan curry or chutney.
