Category - Tea time Snack


Small Sooji / semolina / obbatt rava - 1Cup
Oil - 1/4 to 1/2 Cup
Water as needed to knead
Rice flour - 2 to 4tbsp
Green chilli paste - 1/2tsp adjust to taste
Coriander - 1 handfull, finely chopped
Salt to taste
Lemon salt - A pinch

In a mixing bowl add the sooji, oil and water and combine all and make a ball consistency, everything should hold together and there should be excess of oil floating. Keep it covered.

Soak the above mixture for 4 to 6 hours.

Later to the same dough after 6 hours, add rice flour (adjust to consistency), chilli paste, coriander and both the salts. This dough now should resemble to chapathi dough. Knead for 5 minutes.

Pinch small proportions of the dough and make balls and keep aside. Take a flat tawa / chapathi tawa and put one ball of the dough and spread thinly on the tawa and fry just like chapathis (on both sides) on low flame. The color should be light golden to deep brown. Fry to your preference. Plate the ready rotti on a plate, let it cool and then place them in an air tight box.

Serve these with tea or coffee at evenings.
