WHEAT ROTI/ ADAI - HOW TO MAKE WHEAT ROTI/ ADAI - BREAKFAST / DINNER RECIPE

Today I am posting a recipe for Wheat Roti/Adai. When we say wheat roti, immediately we think it as Chappathi but this is not a chappathi. We use to call it as Gothuma Roti in our home but with the texture and cooking process we can also call it as Adai. It is a very easy recipe and can be prepared for both Breakfast and Dinner. This can be prepared in any size, I prepared a small but it can also be prepared bigger than this. Wheat roti is a soft one by texture and adding fried dhal & Onions to the roti gives very nice flavour and taste. Coconut chutney is the best side dish for this.



Here is the video to show how to make Wheat Roti





Ingredients
Wheat Flour 1 1/2 Cup
Onion 3/4 Cup (Lengthwise chopped)
Oil 3 tblsp
Salt As per taste
Bengal Gram/Chana Dhal 1 1/2 tblsp
Curry Leaves A bunch
Coriander Leaves A Bunch(Chopped)
Ginger(Optional) 1 Inch(Chopped)
Green Chilies 2 to 3 Nos (Chopped)

Instructions

1)Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan, add chana dhal and wait till it turns to golden brown color, now add ginger(optional), green chilies and curry leaves. After few seconds add Onions to it and saute it well till onion color turns to translucent also make sure Onion remains bit crunchy.

2) Now add this mixture, coriander leaves and salt to the wheat floor in a bowl, mix well everything by adding water. Check for salt. Dough should not be in liquid consistency or like chappathi dough.It should be little sticky to handle.


3) Take some water in a bowl and keep this bowl near to your stove. Now heat tawa, add few drops of oil to it. Grab a ball sized dough and place it on the tawa, dip your fingers in the bowl with water and try to spread the dough in tawa. Try to even up in all the areas, concentrate on the middle part and drag the dough from middle to the corners, so that roti will be cooked evenly.

4) Pour few drops of oil around the roti and let it cook for few minutes and flip it to other side using spatula again few drops of oil if needed and cook till roti gets golden brown color on both the sides.

5) Transfer it to a plate and serve with coconut chutney.
