Coconut Roti(Sri Lanka) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup frozen shredded coconut, thawed (unsweetened)
water, until smooth dough forms (about 1/3-1/2 cup)
vegetable oil
Preparation
-
Add the shredded coconut to the flours, rubbing it together to break up any clumps. Mix with water until a smooth, soft ball forms.
Shape into balls(8-10 small or 4-6 large) and coat each one lightly with vegetable oil. Let rest 20 minutes (or as long as you need).
When you're ready to cook, flatten each ball of dough with the palm of your hands to form discs.
Cook on a lightly oiled pan over medium, turning once. The surface of the roti should be dotted with dark brown \"sun spots.\".
Keep them warm in a bowl or basket covered with a cloth.
