Saunfili Roti (Fennel flavoured Indian Bread)

Posted by Divya on June 25, 2017 Filed Under: Breads / Rice, Indian Cuisine Tagged With: Kids Friendly

Saunfili Roti is a delicious aromatic fennel flavoured Indian bread made using whole wheat flour and gram flour. The roti or bread is prefect to go with any of the Indian curries, Dal Makhani or paneer dishes. The name Saunfili Roti is derived from the hindi word “saunf”, also called fennel in english.
In winters the most popular breads/roti/parathas of India are Missi Roti, Palak Methi Paratha, Makki Roti, Urad Dal Paratha etc. The Saunfili roti is good option to make especially in summers as it consists of cooling flavours of fennel and fresh coriander leaves. The gram flour or besan used in the dough gives it a lovely yellowish tinge and a rustic aroma or “sondhi khushboo” as we say in hindi.
The Saunfili roti recipe does not used maida or all purpose flour so it is quite healthy also. Along with fennel, coriander, green chillies other spices likes red chilli powder, asafoetida are also used. You can adjust the quantity of chilli as per your taste or can skip it entirely if making for kids’ tiffin.
