Ingredients

• 1 cup chickpea flour
• 0.5 cup lentil flour
• 0.5 cup mung bean flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1.25 cup water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, lentil flour, mung bean flour, and whole wheat flour.

Step 2

Add salt, ground cumin, ground coriander, and turmeric powder to the flour mixture, stirring to combine evenly.

Step 3

Gradually add water and olive oil to the flour mixture, stirring continuously with a spoon or your hands until the dough begins to come together.

Step 4

Once combined, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and pliable. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more whole wheat flour; if it is too dry, add a small amount of water.

Step 5

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15 minutes.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball.

Step 7

On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a thin circle, about 6-7 inches in diameter.

Step 8

Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium heat.

Step 9

Place a rolled-out roti onto the hot skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes until small bubbles appear on the surface.

Step 10

Flip the roti using a spatula, and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown spots form.

Step 11

Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls, stacking finished rotis in a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm.

Step 12

Serve the nut-free legume rotis warm with your choice of curries, dips, or as a wrap.
