To make this quinoa roti first I prepared quinoa flour. Dry roast the quinoa on low flame. 10 minutes are enough to roast it. Roasting quinoa makes sure that no moisture left in it and easy to grind afterward. Let it come at room temperature and grind it to a smooth consistency. Now just knead the dough and make roti or flatbread. So let see how to make quinoa roti or quinoa flatbread.
Quinoa Roti | Quinoa Chapati | Quinoa Flatbread
Ingredient 6 Roti
1.5 Cup quinoa flour
1 Tsp oil
½ Tsp salt
Water to make a dough
Rice flour for dusting
Method
- First, take all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add water slowly and make a soft dough.
- Do not add a lot of water at once, just add a little to bring flour together.
- Quinoa flour is very sticky while kneading. That is why using oil is a must. It helps to make it soft and smooth. Rest for 10-15 minutes.
- Heat the griddle on medium flame.
- Divide dough into equal parts. With this quantity, I made 6 roti or chapati.
- Dust the rolling surface, roll this around 5-6″ diameter circle.
- Place it on the griddle. After a few seconds flip it to another side.
- Cook from both sides until golden brown. Repeat the same process with the rest of the dough balls.
- Quinoa roti or quinoa flatbread are ready to serve with any curry.
Note
- This very simple and easy roti. Just take care while adding water to knead the dough.
- Apply ghee or clarified butter before serving.
- Making quinoa flour is easy, It is good to store for 2-3 weeks in an airtight container.
