Ingredients

• 1 cup Chickpea flour (besan)
• 0.5 cup Lentil flour
• 0.5 cup Rice flour
• 0.75 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Chili powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0 as needed Oil for cooking

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, lentil flour, and rice flour.

Step 2

Add water gradually to the flour mixture, stirring continuously to form a smooth, lump-free batter. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.

Step 3

Stir in sesame seeds, chopped cilantro, cumin seeds, salt, turmeric powder, chili powder, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 4

Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to allow the flours to absorb the water.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with a little oil.

Step 6

Pour a ladleful of batter onto the skillet and spread it into a thin circle using the back of the ladle.

Step 7

Cook the roti for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles start to form and the edges begin to lift. Flip and cook the other side for another 2 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Serve the Gluten-Free Legumes Rotis hot, with your choice of chutneys or pickles.
