Recipe Notes
- Omam is not added in the original version. I just added this spice for our liking.
- Cooked rice helps in binding the dough. This is optional.
- The dough will be stick to your hands and tear while patting it. There are few tricks you can follow to make it mess free. So you can wet your hand and pat it. But take care, too much of water will be a disaster. You can also apply oil to your hand or dust it with flour. See which suits and adapt accordingly. Please refer to the picture above the recipe.
- This roti will not be soft like the normal parathas or rotis. It is slightly hard and crispy. Rolling out this roti is also not possible since the rice flour is not pliable. This is very similar to the akki roti made in karnataka.
