Missi Roti Recipe

Missi roti is one of the traditional Indian roties that are gaining popularity once again. As it was one of my father’s favorites, Missi roti was a regular in our house. It is best served with any of the leafy vegetable dishes like Sarson (mustard leaves) ka Sag or Sarson ka Sag with Shalgam (Turnip) or Dal Palak or Lamb Curry with Spinach. Drinks like Lassi or Mattha and a lump Jaggery (raw cane sugar in the form of solid cakes) are common accompaniments. Missi roti tastes great with meat and chicken curries too.
