Nariyal Ki Meethi Roti Recipe (Sweet Jain Coconut Roti)

Ingredients

• lemon
• 2 tsp ghee
• 1 cup freshly grated coconut
• 3/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 tsp cardamom (elaichi) powder
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg (jaiphal) powder
• ghee for cooking

Steps

1. Heat the ghee in a broad non-stick pan, add the coconut, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 8 minutes or till it turns light brown in colour, while stirring continuously.
2. Transfer the coconut into a bowl and keep aside to cool completely.
3. Once cooled, add the sugar, cardamom powder and nutmeg powder and mix well. Keep aside.
4. Divide the stuffing into 10 equal portions and keep aside.
5. Place a chapati on a clean, dry surface and place a portion of the stuffing on one half of the chapati.
6. Fold the other half of the chapati over the stuffing to make a semi-circle and press it lightly so that the stuffing doesn’t spill out.
7. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and cook the roti, using a little ghee, till golden brown spots appear both the sides.
8. Repeat steps 2 to 4 to make 9 more rotis.
9. Serve immediately.
