Ingredients
Roti:
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- pinch salt , optional
- 2 tsp ghee
- 3 tbsp fresh beetroot juice
- 1/4 cup milk , mixed with 10-12 strands saffron
Churma:
- 1/3 cup jaggery
- 2 tsp rose water
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
- 2 tsp ghee
- 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
- 2 tbsp pistachio , slivered
- 1 tbsp melon seeds
Instructions
-
In a bowl, add in whole wheat flour, almond flour, salt, ghee, and beetroot juice. Mix everything together so it’s well incorporated.
-
Then, slowly add in your saffron milk as needed to form a medium firm dough. Cover and let rest for 7-8 minutes.
-
Divide the dough into 3-4 equal parts and shape them into round balls. Flatten the balls and roll them out until about 1/2 inch thick, without using any additional flour.
-
Heat a tawa and place the rolled out rotis on it. Cook on medium heat till the base is partly cooked, then flip it over and cook them from both sides on low heat by pressing gently with a cloth. Make sure to press down on them to ensure they cook through since we are keeping them a bit on the thicker side.
Now drizzle ½ tsp of ghee over the roti and along the edges. Cook it by pressing with the help of a spatula. Now, flip it again, drizzle 1/2 tsp ghee and cook by pressing slightly until golden brown on both sides. Repeat this for all of your rotis.
-
While the rotis are hot, crush them into small pieces and transfer into a mixing bowl.
-
Add in your jaggery, coconut, rose water, ghee, and cardamom powder. Give this a mix.
-
Garnish with pistachios and melon seeds and your Almond Rose Roti Churma is ready!
