Bajra Roti - A Winter Favourite
Winter is a good time to try out recipes that are slightly heavy on stomach because one's appetite is much better in winter and one can exercise more in winter enabling you to eat richer food. A good addition to the winter meal is bajra rotis which are delicious and highly nutritious. While kneading the dough for bajra rotis, add finely chopped green chillies, onion, coriander leaves, salt and pepper to bajra flour along with 2-3 tps. of cooking oil. Knead like you would regular wheat flour dough. Heat the tava / non-stick pan and roll-out rotis that are slightly thicker than regular wheat flour rotis. Place roti on a hot tawa and wait for bubbles to appear. Flip to the other side and cook for 1-2 minutes. Pour a few drops of oil on each side to make the crisp on the outside.
If you like,instead of oil you can use pure ghee for the rotis. Also, the rotis can be made without masala and had with honey, jam, or melted jaggery to wrap up your meal.
