Cook time:
Total time:
Yield: 4 Makki Ki Roti (Good for 2 People)
Ingredients:
- 1+1/2 Cup (Our 1 Cup = 240 ML) Maize Flour (Makki ka Atta)
- 1 Cup (Our 1 Cup = 240 ML) Fresh Fenugreek (Methi) Leaves (Optional)
- 1 Cup (Our 1 Cup = 240 ML) Warm water
- For Cooking Chapatis Pure Oil (Desi Ghee)
Method
- To make Dough – Take a big container, add Maize flour, Fenugreek leaves and Salt. Mix well.
- Add small portions of warm water as required to make the dough. Mix the flour well with hand. Do not add all water in one go. The dough need to be smooth. It would take approximately 4-5 minutes to knead the dough.
- Once dough is ready, cover it with a bowl and keep aside for 5 min. This helps in softening of dough and make soft and crisp Chapatis.
- To make chapatis, take a pan and heat it.
- Let us start rolling the chapati for cooking on pan. Apply a small amount of water on your palm and roll the dough.
- Take a small portion from the dough. Apply few pinches of dry Maize flour on the chapati rolling pad.
- Now roll the dough portion with your hand slowly to give it a round shape like a chapati. Do not use rolling pin to roll the chapati as Maize flour dough is too soft and it will torn itself apart.
- Chapati is ready. Pick it up carefully and place on hot pan for cooking.
- Cook it on medium flame as high flame might burn the chapati.
- Cook from one side and then flip.
- In about 2 minute, both sides will be cooked. Now apply oil (ghee) on one side.
- Flip it and apply ghee on this side also.
- Cook until it turns golden brown from both sides.
- Makki ki roti is ready. Take it out of pan.
- Enjoy it with Jaggery (Gud), White butter and Sarson ka Saag. It tastes amazing.
