For the Garlic Chutney:
3 cloves Garlic
1 cup Boondi
3 tbsp Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder
1 tsp Raw Mango Powder
1 tsp Cumin Powder
1 tsp Black Salt
to taste Salt
For the Bajra Rotla:
1 cup Pearl Millet (Bajra Flour)
to taste Salt
1 tsp Clarified Butter (Ghee)
as needed Water
Step 1— Preparing the Garlic Chutney
1
In a grinder, add garlic cloves, boondi, Kashmiri red chilli powder, raw mango powder (amchur), cumin seed powder, black salt, and white salt to taste.
2
Pulse the mixture until it reaches a smooth, consistent paste. Set this aside.
Step 2— Preparing the Bajra Rotla Dough
1
Sift the pearl millet (bajra) flour through a fine sieve into a mixing bowl.
2
Add salt and a teaspoon of ghee to the flour.
3
Gradually add water while mixing.
4
Once a dough ball begins to form, knead it thoroughly by rubbing it against the bowl and using the heel of your hand.
5
Ensure the dough is soft and pliable. Use it immediately to prevent it from becoming too soft.
Step 3— Shaping and Cooking the Rotla
1
Take a portion of the dough. Sprinkle a generous amount of flour on your workspace and your hands.
2
Pat the dough portion repeatedly with your fingers and palm, gradually spreading it out into a flat, thick round roti.
3
Seal any cracks around the edges if they appear.
4
Heat a nonstick or iron pan. Carefully lift the rotla and place it on the hot pan.
5
Apply a small amount of water to the top surface to prevent it from drying out.
6
Once cooked on the bottom, flip it over to cook the other side.
7
For an authentic finish, carefully place the rotla directly over the open flame to ensure it is cooked through on both sides.
8
Once fully cooked, brush generously with ghee or white butter while hot. Serve warm with the prepared garlic chutney, raw onion, and green chillies.
