Sugarcane juice roti (Kabba rosa bhakri)
This recipe was in my drafts for a long time now. Aayi prepared this when she was here in July. For one reason or other, I could not post it. Sugarcane is called kabbu in Konkani and rosu meaning juice. So this is a rotti made of sugarcane juice.
Sugarcane juice is not available in all seasons at my native. So whenever it is available, aayi makes a very tasty spread with it. This is one of those dishes which I absolutely love. The recipe is same as normal akki rotti(alayle pita rotti) but sugarcane juice is used instead of water. This version gets a very nice aroma and taste from the juice used. Try it and you will fall in love with it.

Ingredients:
2 cups rice flour
1 cup Sugar cane juice
1 tbl spn butter
Salt
Method:
Heat sugarcane juice in a big pan till it starts boiling. Add butter, rice flour, salt keep cooking till all the rice flour is mixed well with juice.
Switch off the heat. Let it cool. Mix well with hands to remove all the lumps.
Make small balls out of the dough and roll into rottis. To avoid sticking, roll these on a plastic paper/aluminum foil. Take the plastic, spread some loose rice flour, keep the ball on it and roll.
Roast on a hot tava. Apply ghee if required. Serve hot with asafoetida chutney.
Serves : 2-3
Preparation time : 30mins
PS: Sugarcane juice makes these rottis very hard. Thats the reason butter is added to this. Butter makes them soft.

Hi shilpa,

Hi shilpa,

Sakhee
Have u posted the receipe of shirvalya – in short to tell – rice noodles eaten with sweet coconut juice ?? YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Shilpa: Yes Sakhee, it is on the blog under Breakfast.
very good recipe. It came out excellent and everybody liked as it was different. Your presentation of recipe is excellent and very easy to prepare. Thank you for such a good site.
One point I would like to add is it is better to do the rotis when the dough is warm as it goes cold the dough becomes dry and breakable, also cover the dough as much as possible so that it doesn’t dry quickly.
Creative idea. Thanks for posting this. Who would have thought on this? Sugarcane juice is sooooo good… want to go to India now!
