Schiritsa tortillas

They say such cakes help to increase the well-being and prosperity of the family, contribute to finding harmony. It is impossible to say for sure whether this is really the case, but one thing is for sure: scones from shchiritsa give health, because they are very useful.

By the way, such tortillas are traditional not only for India. Our ancestors also cooked them, however, without the addition of chili and ginger. But we will add these ingredients for a brighter taste of this homemade bread.

1. In a large bowl, transfer the flour from the schiritsa. If you do not have flour, but only seeds are available, they need to be turned into flour yourself. For example, using a coffee grinder.

2. Add ginger paste to the flour in a bowl. Ginger paste is a popular sauce in India. If you don't have a ready-made ginger paste, it's easy to make: to do this, chop the ginger, add a little vegetable oil and salt to taste. That's it - the pasta is ready!

3. Add chopped chili pepper to the flour and pasta in the container.

4. In the same place, we pour cumin seeds and salt and mix everything. Knead the dough - quite steep, adding a little water. The dough should not be soft, it will be quite difficult to knead. You don't need a lot of water - just a little bit.

5. We divide the finished dough into three equal parts and form a ball from each. Then we roll out each ball into a flat cake, make dents on the surface of each cake with a rolling pin handle and cuts with a knife.

6. Heat a cast-iron frying pan. It should be dry, without the addition of oil. Put the first tortilla cut and crumpled side down, cook until browning. Then turn over the other side and cook as well - until browned.

7. Repeat the same with the other two tortillas.

Serve the tortillas to the table warm with ghee oil, favorite sauces, fresh vegetables.

Bon appetit and good health!
