Sesame Sweet Roti

I tried sweet sesame roti from VegInspirations, it was so tasty!
Sesame Sweet Roti
Ingredients:
1 cup wheat flour
1/2 cup sesame seeds
Channa Dal/Pottukadalai - a handful
Jaggery - as per taste[I added 3 tbsp]
Oil

Method:
1.Dry roast sesame seeds, pottukadalai and powder it, the texture should resemble bread crumbs. Keep it aside.

2.Make a soft dough with the wheat flour like chapathi dough and keep covered for an hr or so. The more time u leave the rotis will be super soft!

3.Make lemon sized balls and flatten them into a small circle.
NOTE:While flattenning, make sure u dont press too much in the middle where the filling has to be added.

4.Place about 1 tbsp of the powdered mixture in the center of the rolled out dough and fold the ends of the dough over the mixture covering the mixture so that it gets sealed well.

5.Roll out this dough again into a slightly thick pancake sized circle.

6.Heat tawa, drizzle oil, place the rotis and cook on both sides till light brown. Serve hot!!

And I m sending this to Priyas cooking with seed event
