Receta Homemade Tandoori Roti using a Toaster!
Tandoori Roti is an Indian unleavened whole wheat bread traditionally made in a clay oven or Tandoor. However, for those who do not have a clay oven or Tandoor, here is an easy way of making Tandoori Roti at home using a bread toaster. These healthy rotis can be served with any gravy based veg or non veg dish.
Ingredients:
- Atta (wheat flour)- 2 cups
- Maida (all purpose flour)- 1/4 cup
- Sugar-1 tsp
- Salt to taste
- Yoghurt- 3 tbsp
- Ghee or butter - 2 tbsp
- Water- ¼ cup or as needed
Method:
Mix atta, maida, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl.
Add the yoghurt and mix to make crumbly dough.
Add small quantities of water as needed and knead to smooth dough.
Leave this dough out for about 1 hour.
Divide the dough in to small balls and dip the dough ball into dry flour and roll it out into an oval or round shape disc (thicker than chapathies).
Place rolled out roti on a hot tava and cook until bubbles appear, flip the roti over and cook until light brown spots appear. Keep aside.
Repeat the process until all rotis are cooked on tava.
Pop these rotis into a toaster and toast them on medium until they puff up and darker brown spots appear.
Once the roti is done, remove from toaster and smear it with some ghee on one side. (you can completely omit this for a healthier version).
Place the roti in a paper towel and lightly crush it.
