    DAL-FARRAS
  • This is how it should be,mean time in huge pan keep water for boiling with little salt and oil in it
  • When the water starts boiling put the dumplings one by one in it
  • As the dumplings get cooked they will start floating above,remove the once cooked
  • Cook all the farras same way,you can even steam them,which ever way you are comfortable.but the traditional way of making Dal-Farra is by boiling in the water
  • The whole trick is in the mixture,it has to have strong flavours otherwise the farras will be tasteless
  • Relish them with mango pickles or chutney,my kids have them with schezwan sauce

Bajre ki roti(Pearl millet)


Foodmyway as the name suggests here is another recipe I love cooking and my kids enjoy eating it.Bajra or millet are highly nutritious for health and are gluten free.It is tricky to make as it not sticky like the wheat flour so one has to try once or twice and then you are good to go,,if not once or twice keep trying.its not rocket science

BAJRE KI ROTI
BAJRE KI ROTI

Ingredients

  • 1 cup bajra flour
  • 2 tsp of wheat flour
  • 1 tsp of ghee
  • salt
  • warm water

    Method

  • If you are using wheat flour then if you skip warm water and go for the regular water its ok but,
  • if you are not using wheat flour then warm water is necessary
  • Mix all the ingredients and knead the dough
  • now wheat flour and bajra dough can be rolled down easily but if you skip wheat flour then you will need your hand to spread the roti or you can use plastic bags
  • grease the plastic bag keep the balls of the dough in between in plastic sheet and roll it gently as they keep breaking
  • heat the pan or tawa gently put the roti on it and cook on low flame as bajra takes time to cook
  • cook on both the sides
