An unusual but extremely nutritious roti made with a combination of ragi and wheat flours reinforced with low carbohydrate radish and its greens. The sharp and slightly bitter taste of the radish greens adds great value to the Radish Nachni Roti, further enhanced with sesame and roasted cumin seeds, which although added in small quantities impart a wonderful, lingering flavour and taunting aroma to the rotis. Remember to serve these rotis immediately for best texture; after a while it could become slightly stiff and not as enjoyable as when fresh!
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.
This roti, with its traditional texture and flavour, has the power to recreate a haveli ambience right in your dining room! There is something about the Khasta Roti that unfailingly reminds one of grandma’s patient and loving style of cooking, a laid back lifestyle free of stress and worries. We are unsure whether it is the crisp and blistered texture, or the simple flavour of ghee, which works this magic, but it is definitely an experience worth trying – and it is quite easy to prepare too, so you will surely be game to repeat it quite often.
