The key to making soft layered roti and rigan batata nu shak at home are

For layered roti

  • Firstly, firstly kneading is the key step for getting a soft and puffy roti. Also, I knead roti dough with milk and water mixture, instead of it, you can use slightly warm water to soften the dough.
  • To get a puffy roti and chapati do not rest the rolled round disc. I recommend rolling it and frying the disc immediately or simultaneously.
  • cook roti on medium flame, also does not overheat the frying pan as the disc may stick to the pan.
  • Lastly, layered roti can be stored in an airtight container wrapped in a towel or tissue paper.

For rigan batata sabzi

  • Firstly, cut rigan (brinjals) and potatoes into medium thick slices, do not cut them into thin slices. You can also cut it into slightly bigger size square pieces.
  • Secondly, roast masala on low flame so it becomes aromatic, and Grind masala into a coarse powder, so it will give a slightly crunchy taste while eating sabzi.
  • Lastly, rigan batata nu shak tastes great with roti and raita.
