Nariyal ki Meethi Roti, Sweet Jain Coconut Roti
by Tarla Dalal

The delicate aroma and aesthetic flavour of nutmeg and cardamom make the Nariyal ki Meethi Roti a treat for your senses, while the crunch of roasted coconut makes it a pleasure to sink your teeth into this sweet roti! The traditional charm of coconut makes this Sweet Coconut Roti popular with all age groups.

You can keep the chapatis ready, and also roast the coconut earlier and allow it to cool. So, when it is actually time to make the dish, you just need to mix the filling, arrange it into the chapatis and quickly cook them. Once done, serve immediately, either as a separate snack or as part of a meal.

Nariyal ki Meethi Roti, Sweet Jain Coconut Roti recipe - How to make Nariyal ki Meethi Roti, Sweet Jain Coconut Roti

10 chapatis

For The Stuffing
2 tsp ghee
1 cup freshly grated coconut
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp cardamom (elaichi) powder
1/2 tsp nutmeg (jaiphal) powder

Other Ingredients
ghee for cooking

Method
For the stuffing

Heat the ghee in a broad non-stick pan, add the coconut, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 8 minutes or till it turns light brown in colour, while stirring continuously.
Transfer the coconut into a bowl and keep aside to cool completely.
Once cooled, add the sugar, cardamom powder and nutmeg powder and mix well. Keep aside.

How to proceed

Divide the stuffing into 10 equal portions and keep aside.
Place a chapati on a clean, dry surface and place a portion of the stuffing on one half of the chapati.
Fold the other half of the chapati over the stuffing to make a semi-circle and press it lightly so that the stuffing doesn’t spill out.
Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and cook the roti, using a little ghee, till golden brown spots appear both the sides.
Repeat steps 2 to 4 to make 9 more rotis.
Serve immediately.

I really liked this recipe. Something very different from the usual rotis or parathas that we have. I had some left over rotis and so idecided to try this recipe. The result was outstanding.The coconut and sugar is a good combination with a tinge of cardamom and jaiphal powder. It imparts a very nice flavour.
