Rava Rotti (with Raw Mango & Walnuts Chutney as an ingredient)

Raw Mango -Walnut Chutney & Rava Rotti

Rava rotti is a nutritional staple and this time I've used the chutney that was described as in Raw Mango and Walnut Chutney

The interesting bit is that the chutney is an ingredient of the Rotti and not an accompaniment! Go ahead and get your rottis made!

It has become a hobby to try out some thing using the recipe, and I've applied the same pattern to the Rava Rotti using Raw Mango Chutney.

Raw Mango Chutney : 1 Cup
Onions : 1
Curry leaves : One handful
Coriander leaves : 2 to 3 Table spoons
Salt : Required
Curd : 1 Bowl.
Oil : 3 to 4 Teaspoons

2. Take a big bowl and add the "Raw Mango Chutney", curd, rawa, cut onions, curry leaves and coriander leaves.
3. Mix it nicely and leave it for 5 minutes.
4. Keep a dosa pan on the fire. Heat. Put some water on the tava to know about the heat. Clean up the pan with a tissue or clean cloth.
5. Sprinkle oil and take a handful of the rava dough and spread it on the tava like dosa.
6. Sprinkle half tea spoon of oil and cook on medium heat for 1 to 2 minute. Cover with lid.
7. Now turn the other side and cook for a minute.
8. Remove from the pan and serve hot rava roti with the side dish you prepared.

Note :
Prepare the dough like idli dough consistency. So that it can spread nicely and easily. Wet your hand and then spread the dough.
You can also use any vegetables, (grate and mix) and more onions. Adding green chilly is also optional. (Chutney contains green chilly so I did not add chilly). Using ghee instead of oil is also optional.
Time : 20 minutes.

Once you see a mango your mouth starts watering thinking of  its tongue biting savoury. What ever it is you need them in your vegetable shelf.
