Add 1/2 tsp of red chili flakes and 1 finely chopped green chili to the dough for a spicy kick.
Mix in 2-3 tablespoons of finely grated carrot or finely chopped spinach (saag) into the dough for added nutrition and color.
Instead of coriander, use finely chopped mint leaves or dill leaves for a different flavor profile.
Add 1 tsp of sesame seeds (til) or carom seeds (ajwain) to the dough for extra texture and flavor. Ajwain also aids in digestion.
Made entirely from rice flour, this roti is an excellent choice for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, offering a delicious alternative to wheat-based breads.
Rice flour is rich in carbohydrates, which are the body's primary source of fuel. This makes Chawal ki Roti a great source of quick and sustained energy.
Compared to heavier wheat or millet flours, rice flour is generally lighter on the digestive system, making these rotis a good option for a light meal or for those with sensitive stomachs.
One Chawal ki Roti contains approximately 90-110 calories, depending on its size and the amount of ghee used for cooking.
Yes, it is a healthy option. It is naturally gluten-free, making it great for those with gluten intolerance. It's also light on the stomach and easy to digest. Using minimal ghee keeps it low in fat.
This usually happens for two reasons: either the water was not boiling hot when mixed with the flour, or the dough was not kneaded well enough while it was warm. Ensure you use rolling hot water and knead until the dough is very smooth and pliable.
It is best to make and use the dough immediately. As it cools, rice flour dough tends to become stiff and difficult to roll. If you must, you can store it in an airtight container for a few hours, but you may need to knead it again with a little warm water before rolling.
Wrap the cooled rotis in a clean cotton kitchen towel and place them in a casserole or an airtight container. They can be stored at room temperature for a day. To reheat, place them on a warm tawa and sprinkle a few drops of water to restore softness.
Chawal ki Roti pairs beautifully with a variety of North Indian dishes like Sarson ka Saag, Baingan Bharta, any type of dal (like Dal Tadka), or simple vegetable curries.
