Ingredients

  • 3 medium sized zucchinis (grated)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (coarsely powdered)
  • 2 tablespoon psyllium husk
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoon blanched almond flour

Instructions

Prep the Zucchini:

  • Take three medium size zucchinis.
  • Wash and pat dry zucchinis.
  • Grate the zucchini using a box grater or food processor.

Prepare Chia egg and psyllium husk:

  • Take one tablespoon of chia seeds in a coffee or spice grinder.
  • Grind it into a coarse powder.
  • Take two tablespoons of psyllium husks.

Prepare the Dough:

  • In a large bowl, add grated zucchini, chia seeds powder, psyllium husk and salt and pepper.
  • Add ¼ cup of nutritional yeast.
  • Mix well and prepare the dough.
  • Add two tablespoons of almond flour and mix well.
  • Allow the mixture to stand for 5-10 minutes.

Bake the tortillas/rotis:

  • Set your oven at 350 degree F and preheat.
  • Take a greased baking sheet or add a non-stick baking liner.
  • Take a lemon size of the dough and make a ball out of it.
  • Now press the dough gently against the baking sheet to flatten it and create a thin disc just like a small tortilla or roti.
  • Use the same method to make other tortillas.
  • Bake for ten minutes and flip them, and allow baking for another 10 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes, the tortillas will be fully cooked with slightly browned edges.

Make tacos or serve with curry:

  • I used some curry sautéed vegetables and raw onions for these tacos.
  • Just load with your favorite protein and veggies, and your soft tacos are ready.
  • Or enjoy with your favorite low-carb curry, sautéed veggies and scrambled tofu, or any protein or your choice.

Notes

  • You can skip the almond flour and add ¼ cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Those using egg should drain the juice from grated zucchini.
  • This dough works great as a pizza base too. If using for pizza, add Italian seasoning to the dough mixture.
