Ajwaini Makki Ki Roti (Maize Flour flatbread With Carom Seeds)
A traditional North Indian flatbread made from maize flour with carom seeds. It goes well with a green leafy vegetable curry (sarson da saag, palak paneer, methi saag).
In a bowl, take maize flour, whole wheat flour, oil, turmeric powder, asafoetida and salt.
Mix them well with the help of your fingertips till you get bread crumb like texture.
Add warm water as required and knead into a semi soft dough. Cover the kneaded dough with damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minute.
Make 12 balls from it . Take a ball. Flatten it , sprinkle some carom seeds over it and press it with fingers. Now dust the flatten ball with wheat flour .
Roll a cirlce out of it. It should be around 4-5 mm in thickness.
Heat a flat pan or tava and place the rolled roti on it.
Flip it. Roast it on both sides till you get golden spots on it on a medium heat.
Remove from pan and apply ghee over it. Similarly, make other rotis from it and apply ghee and serve hot.
