Lauki stuff roti

1. Rinse, peel and then grate lauki in a tray or parat or bowl. You will need about 2 cups of grated lauki.

2. Add 1 teaspoon finely chopped green chilies, ½ teaspoon garam masala powder and ½ teaspoon carom seeds (ajwain) and salt as required.

You can substitute with ½ teaspoon red chili powder if you do not have green chilies. If making for small kids then consider reducing green chili or omit to add them.

3. Stir and mix everything very well.
4. Then add 2 cups whole wheat flour. Make a well in the center and add 1 tablespoon oil. You can add any neutral-flavored oil or ghee.
5. First mix the the flour with the rest of the mixture.
6. Start gathering the mixture and begin to knead to a smooth dough. Don’t add any water while kneading. The juices from the lauki are enough to knead. In case the dough becomes sticky, then add some more flour and knead again.
7. On a rolling board, take a small to mediums sized ball from the dough.
8. Roll the roti and cook at tawa.
