Ingredients
1
cup Semolina/Bombay or Upma Rava
1 3/4
cup Water
Maida (all purpose flour)/Wheat Flour
Salt
Ghee to roast the Parota
Instructions
Put the Semolina in a mixie and grind for a minute. (Usually, the Semolina we get in the market is not so fine, that is why we grind it again).
Add salt to the water and boil the water.
Add Rava to the boiling water slowly and keep stirring on medium flame until it is cooked.
After it is cooked into a tight ball, take it on to a plate and let it cool.
Sprinkle some Maida and without water, knead the mixture while still hot. (The water in the cooked Rava is sufficient)
In case you cannot handle the heat, cover it with a wet cloth and knead it along with the cloth. Or you could buy a Silicone mat which is available online or in Bakery products stores.
The dough should be kneaded well so that there are no lumps. Then sprinkle Maida gradually (I had 2 tsps of Maida leftover still after my original measure of half a cup, so you could take care to use as little as Maida as possible while kneading the Rava.)
Now roll out the Rava dough, sprinkling Maida and make it a thin Parota.
When the pan is very hot, dry roast the Parota on both sides and then add 1/2 a spoon of Ghee on either side and roast until the Parota turns golden.
