Introduction: Bajra and Spinach Roti is a healthy and delicious flatbread made with pearl millet flour and fresh spinach. This nutritious roti is perfect for a wholesome meal and pairs well with any curry or yogurt.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups Bajra (pearl millet) flour
• 1 cup fresh spinach leaves, finely chopped
• 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
• 1/2 tsp carom seeds (ajwain)
• 1 green chili, finely chopped
• 1 tsp ginger paste
• Salt to taste
• Water (as needed)
• Ghee or oil (for cooking)

Instructions:

1. Preparing the Dough:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine bajra flour, chopped spinach, cumin seeds, carom seeds, green chili, ginger paste, and salt.
   • Gradually add water and knead into a soft dough. The dough should be pliable but not sticky.
2. Shaping the Rotis:
   • Divide the dough into equal-sized balls.
   • Dust a rolling surface with a little flour.
   • Flatten a dough ball and roll it out into a circular shape using a rolling pin. Since bajra flour lacks gluten, the edges might crack slightly; just press them together gently.
3. Cooking the Rotis:
   • Heat a tava or griddle over medium-high heat.
   • Place the rolled-out roti on the hot griddle.
   • Cook for a minute or until small bubbles form on the surface. Flip the roti.
   • Cook the other side until brown spots appear.
   • Apply a little ghee or oil on both sides and cook until the roti is golden brown and cooked through.
4. Serving:
   • Serve hot bajra and spinach rotis with yogurt, pickle, or any curry.

Tips:

• You can add finely chopped onions or grated carrots to the dough for added flavor and nutrition.
• If the dough feels too dry, sprinkle a little water and knead again.
