Jowar is a grain that is being used since ancient times. It is gaining popularity these days. People have started using it a lot in various forms. We have many innovative recipes with this flour like cookies, breads, etc etc

Ingredients: Jowar / sorghum flour .... 1 cup Water ............................... 1 cup Ghee /clarified butter ..... 2 - 3 tbsps

Method:

1. Take a thick and heavy pan and add the jowar flour.

2. Add the equal quantity of water which is 1 cup here.

3. Start mixing with the ladle immediately breaking all the lumps.

4.Continue mixing until it thickens and becomes like a dough that we knead for rotis.

5. Immediately remove from the pan onto a plate as the pan is still hot and it will be over cooked. So do not leave it in the hot pan for cooling.

6. Spread it on the plate with the spoon so that it cools faster.

7. Once you are able to handle it start kneading it until smooth. Gather the dough together.

8. Take a small portion and roll it out into a thin roti sprinkling little dry flour as needed.

9. Using a spatula transfer the roti on to a greased griddle so that it does not get stuck.

10. Flip it a couple of times. When it is half done roast it directly on the gas with the help of tongs.

11. Remove and spoon some ghee / clarified butter on it.

12. Put them in a casserole lined with foil paper to keep them soft.

13. These can be served with any veg or non veg curry, sabzi, dal.

Yield - 6-7 rotis from 1 cup flour
