Beetroot Akki Roti Recipe

Rashmi K -
 Akki roti is a traditional and popular South Indian or Karnataka rice flour-based cuisine. It is generally served for morning breakfast with a choice of spicy groundnut chutney or coconut chutney. Typically, it is made with fine rice flour or Akki Hittu, but it can also be made with leftover rice and idli rava.
Here I used beetroot, carrot and onion, so I named it beetroot Akki roti. If you skip, then it becomes akki roti, so the base is rice flour; you can add anything to it, like dill leaves, fenugreek leaves, capsicum, curry leaves, coriander leaves etc.

INGREDIENTS:
Serves: 15 roti

• 1cup rice flour

• 1 onion, finely chopped

• 1 medium size Beetroot, grated

• 1 carrot, grated

• 1 chilli, finely chopped

• 3/4 tsp salt

• water, as required

• oil, for roasting



METHOD:
 
• firstly, in a large bowl take rice flour. Add onion, beetroot, carrot, green chilli and salt.

• now add a little water and start to mix the flour.

• add more water as required and knead to the smooth and soft dough without putting much pressure. akki roti dough is ready; keep it aside.

• grease the heavy-bottomed tawa with coconut oil.

• take ball-sized dough and tap gently to a thin thickness.

• place the tawa on low flame.

• cook on both sides add a tsp of oil until it turns golden brown.

• finally, enjoy akki roti with spicy chutney.
