There are days, when I don’t want regular lunch. I come back tired and I want to eat something more hearty and something that has lot of flavors.
I had made this Roti / Flatbread, a few days ago. Thought of sharing with you all :). Sometimes change is good and most welcomed on a tired day. I ate it with pickles and yogurt.

Now spread the dough out gently between two sheets of plastic, with your hands. Don’t make it too thin. Refer pic 6.

Loved it… Never knew even roti is possible with stuffing… 🙂
I always make a stuffed roti for myself where as I make paranthas for the family :). Thanks Shikha.

I really, really I mean really love this. I am a big fan of cauliflower, you grate raw cauliflower for this? It’s not cooked? This would satisfy my love for flat bread but without the guilt. Saved.
Thanks Suzanne :).
Yes I grated raw cauliflower with it. You may do that in food processor too. The raw cauliflower gives it a nice crisp texture when cooked.

Super! Even I try multigrain chapatis; yours has such a lovely combination. Besan, I haven’t thought of adding. I’m sure it gave a pakora effect to it.
Apsara, besan didn’t give it a pakoda effect. We use besan quite often in out rotis. Rather there is a roti popular in north called Besani Roti :). It gives a rustic flavor to the roti.
