Ingredients

  • 1 cup Raw Rice
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 1/3 cup Ghee
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 1/4 tsp Cardamom Powder
  • A Pinch Powdered Clove
  • Cooking Oil For Deep Frying

Instructions

How to make the Sel Roti

  • Wash and soak rice overnight. Drain and take the rice in a mixer.
  • Add sugar, ghee, water, cardamom powder and clove and grind to a fine thick paste.
  • Pour this into a measuring jar or any glass.
  • Heat cooking oil in a kadhai.
  • Beat the batter with a spoon until fluffy. Once the oil is hot, pour the batter into hot cooking oil in the shape of a circle.
  • Fry until golden on both sides. Drain the cooking oil and transfer the roti on a plate.
  • When cool, store in airtight jar.

Notes

  • In the other recipe, I got for this dish, they have added 250 gm of wheat flour for 1 kg of Rice.
  • The batter is very tricky and needs the practice to work on making the circles when poured into the hot cooking oil. You can adjust the shapes with rods or chopsticks.
