Rice Flour Roti

Rice Flour Roti, popularly known as Akki Rotti in Karnataka, is prepared from rice flour, onion, dill leaves, green chili and cumin seeds. A small portion of the dough is flattened into thin rounds that are roasted on a hot griddle.

Ingredients:

Rice Flour – 1 cup
Onion – 1, peeled and chopped
Dill Leaves – 1/4 cup, chopped
Green Chillies – 4, chopped
Cumin Seeds – 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Ghee/Oil – 1 tsp each for frying each Roti

Method:

1. In a mixing bowl mix rice flour, onion, dill leaves, green chillies, cumin seeds, salt with 3/4 cup water.
2. On a griddle, place some dough and spread it evenly pressing it gently.
3. Turn on the heat and place the griddle over the flame.
4. Dab some water all over the surface of the roti to avoid it drying.
5. Keep the roti on the griddle covered.
6. When the roti looks almost cooked, the color changes.
7. Now spread some ghee on the roti and reverse the side and roast little bit.
8. Serve hot with chutney.

P.S: To make thin rotis, spread the dough on a griddle that is not warm. This will also help you to spread the roti evenly. You can use 2 griddles and use them alternatively to make rotis so that they are not warm.
