Grilled Akki Rotti With Sprouts - Grilled Flat Bread With Rice Flour And Sprouts

GRILLED AKKI ROTTI WITH SPROUTS

I was awed by the the conventional foods dished out by Dibs, using unconventional cooking methods in record time ! Grilled Akki Rotti with Sprouts is a nutritious, crisp and chewy version of the traditional Akki Rotti that she makes often. My five year old grand daughter loves to take a wedge of this tea time snack to her kindy. It is most enjoyable with a hot cup of 'tea time' coffee ! This is how she prepares it.

INGREDIENTS

Rice flour - 2 cups( Just enough to bind all the ingredients)

Sprouted Moong dal - 2 cups

Salt - 3/4 tsp

Finely chopped green chillies - 1 tbsp

Finely chopped fresh ginger - 1 tbsp

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp

Finely chopped Kale - 1 cup
Kasoori Methi - 1 tbsp

Ghee - 2 tbsps

 TO MAKE THE DOUGH

1.First mix all the ingredients together except the rice flour.

2.Mix in the rice flour and bind the ingredients together into a soft spreadable dough adding water little by little. 

TO GRILL THE AKKI ROTTI

1. Apply ghee liberally and grease the ribbed cast iron pan thoroughly. 

2. Spread the dough into a one inch thick rotti in the greased pan.

3. Sprinkle some more ghee on top of the spread dough.

4. Grill for 20 minutes or till the Akki Rotti turns into a golden brown colour.

5. When done, remove from the oven and cut into wedges using a sharp knife.

Enjoy with chutney or any other spread you like. It tastes super delicious even without the dips. 

We finished the entire Rotti straight from the oven, before we could even click the cut wedges !
