I generally have Ragi Flour, Bajra Flour, Jowar Flour always in stock. I usually make Instant Dosais, add it to Roti dough, prepare Idiyappam, Kozhakkattai with these flours. It comes handy. We can make quick snack or dinner from the. Also since whole millets are slightly harder to find here, I incorporate these flours in my weekly meal. Tacos are nothing but cornflour Tortilla with stuffing in it. It is a popular mexican dish. Taking inspiration from it I created these two different varieties of Millet Flour Rotis.
You can build your own Tacos/Roti Wrap. Suggesting some ideas. Hope it helps 🙂
How to build Millet Flour Roti/Taco :
Base : Millet Flour Rotis/Whole Wheat Rotis/Corn Flour Tortillas
Filling : Lemon Cilantro Rice/Paneer Subzi/Potato Masala/Leftover Variety Rice or any dry curries
Spread : Mint Coriander Chutney/Hummus/Pesto/Guacamole. If you don’t have any of these paste you can use some chilled creamy Yogurt too
Veggies : Add it like a raw salad or stir fried veggies or roasted cauliflower,broccoli etc
Protein : Tofu, Paneer,Kidney Beans, Chickpeas
Other seasoning : Lemon Juice, Dried herbs, Olive oil, Chilli Flakes
This is how my dinner plates looked like with Bajra Roti & Ragi Roti
Bajra Tacos : Jowar Flour Roti with Stir fried Kidney Beans, Tomato Salsa & Sliced Avocado
Ragi Tacos : Ragi Flour Roti with Potato Cabbage Masala, Salad & Sundried Tomato Hummus
