Main Ingredients Besan, Atta

Masala Besan Roti is a classic North Indian recipe. It is a very tasty roti but is best eaten in moderation as besan is not considered very good for the digestion. For this recipe we are adding a little atta to the gram flour to mitigate the effects of gram flour without affecting the taste. We also use chat masala and garam masala to give it a nice flavour.
