Missi Roti



Another easy recipe as an alternative to the normal phulkas that we eat everyday.This recipe is from Sanjeev Kapoor's Tandoori Cooking at Home I modified it as I do not own a tandoor and so cooked it on the tawa like a normal roti.Dal and aloo gobhi would be the perfect accompaniement to this but its so yummy that I eat it with tomato ketchup.These are perfect for parties as well as they do not harden up easily and if kept in a muslin cloth remain soft for a couple of hours at room temperature.

Makes 10 Missi rotis.

Ingredients:
gram flour (besan) 1 cup
whole wheat flour (aata) 1/2 cup
green chillies finely chopped 2tbsp (optional can be omitted if you can't handle the heat)
fresh green coriander leaves finely chopped 2 tbsp
onion finely chopped 2 tbsp
chaat masala 1/2 tsp
salt to taste
oil 2 tbsp
water to make roti dough

Method
1.Sift together the two flour with the chaat masala and salt to combine evenly.
2.Add the chopped chillies,onion and coriander.
3.Add enough water to make a soft dough.Knead the dough like for normal chapattis.
4.Make 10 small balls and let it rest for 10mins.
5.Roll out the balls one at a time as for chapattis and cook on a greased tawa adding a little oil if the
   missi roti starts sticking to the tawa.
6.Cook on both sides on the tawa.This roti does NOT require cooking over an open flame like we do for
   chapattis.
