Indian Cornbread ( Makai Ki Roti) image

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...

Time 25m

Yield 6 rotis

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup sweet corn
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin seed (I use a bit more)
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped coriander
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon oil
salt

Steps:

  • Grind the sweetcorn to a fine paste in a food processor, without adding any water.
  • Mix the corn paste with the rest of the ingredients in a bowl to make a soft dough; only use water if needed.
  • Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and roll each one into a circle of 4" diameter.
  • Heat a tava or frying pan and cook each roti on both sides on a slow flame until golden brown, using a little oil.
  • I must admit I have to use more oil than stated but that may be my inexperience!
  • My girls eat these on their own with some yogurt dip.

Makai ki roti is a great way to use up leftover cornmeal. I always have a bag of cornmeal in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it for.
