Instructions

1. 1 In a mixing bowl, combine ragi flour, chopped onion, grated carrot, chopped coriander leaves, grated coconut, cumin seeds, chopped green chilies, and salt.

3. 3 Divide the dough into equal portions, about the size of a small orange.
4. 4 Heat a tawa or griddle over medium heat and grease it lightly with oil.
5. 5 Take one portion of the dough and place it on a piece of banana leaf or plastic sheet. Flatten it gently with your fingers into a thin, round rotti.
6. 6 Carefully transfer the flattened rotti onto the heated tawa.
7. 7 Cook the rotti on medium heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until it turns golden brown and crisp.
8. 8 Repeat the process with the remaining dough portions.
9. 9 Serve hot with coconut chutney or any preferred side dish.
