to be one of the least allergenic varieties of flour.

Sorghum Flour: Nutritionally, sorghum flour is similar to corn flour, but it has a higher concentration of protein. It is gluten-free so it is an excellent choice for people who are gluten intolerant.

Method:


1. Mix flours, salt and water together to make a semi-soft dough (towards stiff becos adding millet flour will automatically make dough softer so avoid adding more water) 

2. Knead the dough on a lightly greased surface to make the dough smooth and pliable.

3. Set the dough aside and cover or atleast 10-15 mins

4. Divide the dough into 12 equal parts.

5. Make smooth ball and press flat between your palms. Take 1 ball; press it in dry flour from both sides.

6. Roll in to a 6-inch circle. If the dough sticks to the rolling pin or rolling surface, lightly dust the roti with dry flour.

7. Heat the iron/nonstick skillet on medium high heat. & place the roti over skillet.

8. Let it cook for about 30 secs, once you see the roti has started puffing, flip it on the other side and let it cook.

9. Flip again after a few seconds, now with a flat spatula and press lightly on the puffed parts of the roti. This will help the roti puff.
