This is from Tarla Dalal's delicious diabetic low cal recipe book. This is rich in iron and fibre. Panir is a rich source of calcium and protein. If desired, you can make these without filling the turnovers, i. , just make the jowar and methi rotis. Enjoy. Ingredients:
1 cup black millet flour (bajra flour) |
1 cup fenugreek leaves, chopped (methi) |
2 large garlic cloves, chopped |
1 tablespoon low-fat yogurt |
salt |
1/2 cup low-fat panir |
1 green chili, finely chopped |
1/8 teaspoon turmeric powder |
1/4 teaspoon dried fenugreek leaves (kasoori methi) |
3 tablespoons chopped coriander leaves |
1 tomato, finely chopped |
salt |
1 teaspoon olive oil, for cooking |
Directions:
1. Lightly crush the fenugreek leaves and garlic with a little salt. 2. Add to the bajra flour and knead into a soft dough using the low fat yoghurt and hot water. 3. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. 4. Roll out each part into a circle of 4-5 inches diameter. 5. Mix the filling ingredients together in a bowl. 6. Now place a porton of the filling mixture on one half of each rolled circle and fold it over to make a semi-circle. 7. Life the turnover carefully. 8. Place it on a non-stick pan. 9. Use a little oil and cook the turnover on both sides until golden brown on very low heat. These rotis are thick and will take a while to cook. 10. Repeat with the remaining dough circles and the filling mixture to make 3 more turnovers. 11. Serve hot. 12. Enjoy! 13. Note: You can make only the bajra roti using the garlic flavoured dough. |
