Ingredients

  • 1 cup Wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup Milk cold
  • 2 tsp Ghee
  • 1/8 tsp Cardamom Powder
  • 1 /2 tsp Fennel Powder
  • 1 cup Jaggery
  • Water as required

Instructions

  • Add just enough water to melt jaggery, melt to dissolve completely.
  • Sieve the jaggery solution to remove impurities. Set aside, and allow the solution to cool.
  • In a wide bowl, take the flour with the milk along with ghee.
  • Add fennel powder and combine well.
  • Add the jaggery solution to the prepared wheat flour, gradually kneading it.
  • Continue till you have a stiff dough. I was not able to use the entire solution, which might result in the rotis not being as sweet as excepted. I refrigerated for a while for the dough to set.
  • Divide the dough into equal balls. I got about 4 rotis
  • Heat a tawa and cook the roats on both sides with ghee.
  • Cook each roat till it becomes brown. Remove the roat from the griddle
  • Serve it when cool.
