Ingredients
- 2 cups Jowar (sorghum) flour
- 1.25 cups Warm water
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of jowar flour and 0.5 teaspoons of salt. Mix thoroughly with a spoon or whisk to evenly distribute the salt throughout the flour.
Step 2
Gradually add 1.25 cups of warm water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously with a spoon or your hands. You want to form a dough that is soft but not sticky. Add the water slowly to ensure you do not add too much.
Step 3
Once the dough starts to come together, knead it gently with your hands for about 5 to 7 minutes until it is smooth and pliable. If the dough is too dry, add a little more warm water, a tablespoon at a time.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and roll each part into a ball with your hands. Cover the dough balls with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out as you work.
Step 5
Lightly flour a clean work surface with jowar flour. Take one dough ball and flatten it gently with your palm. Use a rolling pin to roll it out into a circle, roughly 6 inches in diameter. Roll out all the dough balls in the same manner.
Step 6
Heat a flat skillet or non-stick tawa over medium-high heat. Once hot, place a rolled-out roti on the skillet. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, until small bubbles begin to appear on the surface of the roti.
Step 7
Flip the roti using a spatula and cook the other side for another 1 to 2 minutes. Press gently with the spatula to help the roti puff up slightly. You should see dark spots forming on the surface.
Step 8
Remove the cooked roti from the skillet and keep it warm by wrapping it in a clean kitchen towel. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining rolled-out dough.
Step 9
Serve the Jowar Roti hot with your favorite Whole30 compliant curries or stir-fried vegetables. Enjoy!
