Ingredients

  • 1 cup Flaxseed ground into a meal
  • 1 cup water/broth
  • A pinch of salt

Additional optional ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • ¼-1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast

Instructions

Make the flax meal:

  • Grind a cup of flax seed in a coffee or spice grinder until a coarse powder is formed.

Prepare the dough:

  • In a bowl heat a cup of water. (bring to a boil)
  • Add salt and spices of your choice. I added ½ teaspoon curry powder.
  • In a bowl take 1 cup of flax meal and ¼ cup nutritional yeast. Add a pinch of salt/pink salt.
  • Now add the dry ingredients to the boiling hot water.
  • Mix well until the mixture thickens.
  • Use a silicone spatula to scrape around the edges of the pan.
  • Cook until the mixture becomes doughy and leaves the pan.
  • Allow the dough to cool.

Add herbs and onion:

  • Take the dough in a bowl. Add two tablespoon of chopped red onions and finely chopped cilantro. You can also add grated ginger, minced garlic, and chopped green chilies at this point.
  • Mix well and knead the dough a bit. If needed, take a tablespoon or almond or coconut flour to make the dough smooth and well combined with herbs and veggies.

Make Rotis/Parathas:

  • Take small lemon size dough ball and place it between two parchment papers.
  • Roll the ball into thin roti/ paratha(disc) and carefully transfer it to a hot griddle.
  • Second method: place the dough ball on the hot griddle and with the help of a silicone spatula spread the dough to a thin disc-like roti or paratha.
  • Cook until the roti leaves the pan or griddle and becomes brown around the edges.
  • Serve with chutney, curry or sautéed veggies.

Notes

  • Use boiling water while making the dough.
  • You can shape the roti by using a roundpan lid too.
  • Use oil while cooking the roti/paraths if you want.
  • Keto flax parathas or the dough can be stored well in refrigerator for 3 days and in freezer for a month.
