How To Make Missi Roti, A Rustic Flatbread Using Gram Flour?
Missi Roti
Missi Roti is a rustic chewy flatbread made with whole wheat and gram flour along with a few spices including turmeric.There are some things which are an eye sore in my pantry only to the limited audience of me of course! And one among them, in fact, the only one is the chickpea flour or besan. I loathe that light yellow flour. I hate the texture, smell, flavor and everything else there s about besan. Sorry if you all are pally with besan. I really do not know when i developed a yawning hatred for chickpea flour. Maybe it was when a friend told me about some fritters that she ate which made her sick. I have no clue. But all i know is if i look at chickpea flour, then i m pushed to screwing my face up. If i am asked to cook with chickpea flour, then i m almost going to be in tears. And if you ask me to eat something that has chickpea flour, then you have pushed me to tears.When i was on a pantry cleaning spree last week and when i knew i ve to empty my gram flour stocks ,i decided to make some missi roti, a wonderful rajasthani delicacy. I loved these rotis. But chickpea flour is still not my BFF.Serve hot with some spicy Paneer Tawa Masala or some shahi paneer. Recipe coming soon!! Also,Sending this to MLLA hosted by Priya for Susan.

  • Chick pea flour or besan ¾ cup

  • Coriander leaves chopped finely 3 tbsp
  • Green chili minced 1
  • Cumin seeds ¼ tsp
  • Carom seeds ¼ tsp

  • Now, add ¼ cup of water and start kneading.
  • Add more water as necessary to knead the dough into a soft pliable and supple dough.
  • But make sure you dont add more than ¾ cup of water. We dont need a sticky mass here.
  • Having kneaded the dough, cover with a clean damp kitchen towel and set aside for about 10 mins.
  • After 10 mins, knead the dough for a min and then divide it into 12 equal parts.
  • Now shape the dough parts into round balls, press them a little, dip them in flour and roll them into small rotis.
  • Cook on a tawa applying oil on both sides until brown spots appear.

    Even I don't like the raw smell of chickpea flour, but when cooked with other spices, it's fine, the rotis have come out perfectly..
