ABOUT Rajasthani Khoba Roti RECIPE

The word 'khoba' means indentation or cavity and that is how these rotis are prepared. This Indian bread truly unravels the mystery of the vast desert expanse. They are best cooked in a gas tandoor but an ordinary g over gas will give you equally good results, if cooked over a slow flame. Serve hot!

Ingredients Serving: 2

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp ghee
salt to taste
Pinch of Kasuri methi
ghee for smearing and serving
Whole wheat flour for rolling

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients in a deep bowl and knead into a firm dough using enough water.
Divide the dough into 2 big and 2 small equal portions.
Roll out a portion into a 150 mm. (6") diameter circle using a little whole wheat flour for rolling.
Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and cook the roti for approx. 2 to 3 minutes on each side and remove onto a plate.
Pinch the roti uniformly throughout using your thumb and first finger.
Again cook the roti on a tava (griddle) over a slow flame for 5 to 6 minutes or till they turn golden brown in colour from both the sides using a muslin cloth.
Repeat same steps to make other rotis.
Serve immediately with ghee and a subzi of your choice.
