Khoba Roti Rajasthani Bread
Khoba Roti is a traditional Rajasthani flatbread made from whole wheat flour, featuring deep grooves or patterns (khoba) on its surface. Cooked on a hot tawa, it has a slightly crisp exterior and soft interior, making it perfect to pair with curries, dals, or vegetables.
Ingredients
- 2 1⁄2 cups whole wheat
- Salt to taste 1⁄2 cup ghee
- flour 1 tbsp fenugreek leaves
- clarified butter 2 tsp ajwain
Instructions
- Mix together flour, salt, 1 tbsp ghee, ajwain, fenugreek leaves, and water to make a stiff dough. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Now divide the dough into balls. Roll out round and thick discs about 8 diameters. Using your fingers, push, pinch and lift the dough at various places to make indents and pinches on the surface. Do the same on the sides as well.
- Heat a griddle and cook with the pinched side up first, then turn. Apply ghee on both sides and cook on medium heat for a nicely done crisp bread. Serve hot.
