• 2 cup whole wheat flour
• Water, if needed

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How to Make Beetroot Duppad:

1. Add 2 cup whole wheat flour, salt, beetroot paste to a mixing bowl.
2. Knead well to make a smooth dough like chapati.
3. Cover the dough with cling film and set aside for 30 minutes.
4. Divide the dough into 12-14 equal-sized balls.
5. Now take two balls and flatten them.
6. Dip one ball into the oil and dip another one into dry flour.
7. Join both balls and merge them by pressing and seal the corners as shown in the photos.
8. Roll this into a 7-7 inch circle.
9. Cut the edges with a pizza cutter or knife to make an even circle from all the sides.
10. Heat a pan or tawa and place the rolled roti.
11. Once you see the bubble, flip it, and roast on the other side.
12. Press the circle evenly with a napkin on all sides with very soft hands while roasting.
13. This process would separate the layers.
14. Now carefully pick the upper half of it on the side and pull over gently to peel off the layer completely.
15. This time, you will see that the chapati has split into two equals.
16. Remove from heat and place them on a plate.
17. Repeat the same process with other dough balls.
18. Smear them with ghee and roll them into triangles as shown in the photos.
19. Serve hot with your favorite curry.
