KANDHE KI ROTI - MUMMY'S FAVOURITE ONION PARATHA
My Mother, Mrs. Shashibala Ramchandani, passed away in her sleep at 9pm due to a massive cardiac arrest here at our residence in Pune on the 19th of April, just 2 days after my birthday. She was the best woman in this world and she made me feel strong and capable of doing anything I wanted. In the last few days that were left of her life, she enjoyed eating these rotis for breakfast alongwith a hot cup of tea on the side. I am posting this recipe today and I sincerely hope all my friends will try it and give me their reviews. Also, for those Zaarites I don't know, I would be so happy if you'd give this a try and get back to me through a review on how you liked it. A maid working for my home and looking after my Mom taught me to make this roti.

INDIAN CORNBREAD ( MAKAI KI ROTI)
This is from Tarla Dalal's Roz ka khana and is a huge favourite with my daughters. It is really quick and nutritious. I use Tinned or frozen corn kernels. They come out quite crisp, perhaps someone reading this can tell me if they need to be softer and how I can achieve that...

BUSS UP SHUT (PARATHA ROTI)
I love buss-up-shut and always thought it was a hard roti to make till I found a recipe for it. It is so easy and delicious! Buss-up shut, when finished is supposed to be flaky and silky soft. If it is crunchy, you overcooked it (I did that the first time I attempted it! lol) I use all butter instead of ghee sometimes and it turns out fantastic.
