Chiroti Rava Rotti and Onion Tomato Gojju

Chiroti rava rotti is fast to make and yum to eat. Rotti is bland so any kind of spicy gravied vegetable is a perfect match. As I have mentioned in my previous post that we at home have kind of fixed the vegetable and flat breads. This is one such combination which works well together.

You need the following to make Rava rotti :

Chiroti Rava- 1 big cup (about 150-200g) (follow the link to see the picture of chiroti rava
Water : 1cup
salt
Maida/all purpose flour for dusting
Oil for frying rotis

Gadgets :
Rolling pin and a wooden working board to make rotis

1.Bring water to boil with salt. When water starts boiling turn of the stove and add 1 cup of rava and stir well, cover the vessel and leave it aside, till you make gojju.
2.When rava comes to room temparature, spoon it to a big plate and mix it thoroughly. No lumps should be present in the dough. You can oil your hand to prevent dough from sticking to your hand.
3.Divide the dough into equal parts and make balls.
4.Press down each ball and flour the surface of the ball and roll them with rolling pin to make circle.
5.Fry/Roast them on a hot girdle by applying little oil on each side while you turn it over.

This is how it looks when you fry rave rotti ..
