SAMAAN

AISE BANAO.

01Wash the greens well and chop roughly.
02Boil the greens with chillies, ginger, turmeric, salt and 1 cup water for 30 minutes until very soft.
03Mash or pulse coarsely, stir in 2 tbsp makki atta and simmer for 15 minutes.
04Heat ghee, add hing, garlic and onion. Cook until golden, add chilli powder and pour over the saag.
05Knead the makki atta with warm water a little at a time into a soft dough.
06Pat each ball into a roti between your palms or on wet plastic.
07Cook on a hot tawa with a little ghee until spotted on both sides.
08Serve the saag with white butter on top and the rotis on the side.
RAMESHJI KA TIP“Chief Swaad Inspector approved. Sunder daalo, swaad badhao.”Knead makki dough just before cooking. It has no gluten and dries out if left.

SAWAAL JAWAAB

Can I use only mustard greens?

You can, but a little spinach softens the bitterness.

Why does my makki roti crack?

Use warm water and knead well with the heel of your hand until smooth.
