Cucumber consists of 95% water and it keeps us hydrated. They are rich in Vitamin C, K and fibre. Mostly it is eaten raw as salad. They cool the body and that's why it is the most preferred vegetable during summers. Try this easy roti recipe with jowar flour.

I made this today. Every detail you have suggested is perfect. I followed it entirely. It turned out as you have demonstrated. I was wondering if there was a way to get the roti to cook without the patches. It was a little not-soft, but we loved it. I wish to get the final look even better. Maybe I should not have patted it so thin? Do please help.
Hi Meera, since we are patting, the uneven surface is bound to happen. That gives a rustic look. Isn’t it? We are so used to eating too much of gluten loaded rotis which are soft. That’s why we expect millet rotis also very soft. But since they are gluten free, the will be little hard. Thankyou for sharing your experience.
Thank you Vijaya.
Just came by this recipe and delighted. Can you please tell me, for the measurements you have used, how many rotis did you get? We are 2 people and I know excess dough will not keep well. Many thanks for bringing health to our homes.
This recipe looks so delicious and I am making it. Would like to know the consistency for the dough. Should it be like chapathi dough or very soft dough? Thanks so much!
Hi the consistency should be wet and soft. Please go through the video. You may find it helpful
