Servings8 rotis
Ingredients
- 2 cups wheat flour / multigrain atta
- ¼ cup garlic pearls
- 2 teaspoon oil
- 2 teaspoon sesame seeds
- salt to taste
- water as needed
- oil / butter / ghee to toast
Instructions
- Separate garlic pearls from pod then remove the skin from them. You can either chop it finely or crush it. I used my garlic press. Collect crushed garlic in a bowl and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl take wheat flour, add required salt, half of crushed garlic, oil. Mix well with your finger tips.
- Add water little by little to form a smooth pliable dough just like chapathi dough. Set aside for 10mins. Make big lemon sized balls.
- Place on a chapathi roller and roll it using a rolling pin to a slightly thick roti. Sprinkle flour if needed. Sprinkle sesame seeds and spread crushed garlic.
- Slightly roll it for pressing, like wise make all your rotis.
- Sprinkle oil on the tawa, carefully place a roti with the sesame side down on the tawa. Press it with a ladle for even cooking.
- Flip over, press and cook until golden brown spots appear here and there. Alternately you can cook one side(with the garlic side down) in tawa and flip and cook in direct flame as we do for phulkas. Make the rotis. Brush it with butter/ghee. Enjoy Garlic Roti!
Notes
- Garlic – I crush the garlic using a garlic press. You can even fine chop and use it too. Big pieces may taste raw.
- Resting – I rest the dough for 10 minutes. This helps make the rotis soft and easy to roll. I never skip this step.
- Flame – I keep the flame in medium as garlic burns very fast. Slow cooking give better flavor and even cooking.
- Pressing – I gently press the roti using a ladle while cooking. This helps it cook evenly and puff slightly.
- Brushing – I just brush butter or ghee after cooking. This keep the rotis soft for longer time and add nice taste.
