Heart-healthy recipe — barley (jau) roti

bhakri


Switch from wheat rotis to barely ones which are more nutritious and have a distinct taste too. If you cannot eat them every day, make sure you have them once a week and reap in their benefits. 



Ingredients


  • 100g barley (jau) atta

  • ½ chilli paste

  • ½ cup chopped coriander

  • Salt to taste

Method


Take water in a vessel put it on a medium flame.
As it starts boiling, add barley atta, chilli paste and coriander, and leave it for 2 to 3 minutes. Do not stir.
Take it off the flame. Stir with a wooden spoon so that lumps are not formed.
After it is mixed well, cool for five minutes and transfer it to a flat plate.
Knead well.
Roll it into rotis just like thin wheat rotis.
Apply ¼ tsp ghee if desired.
