Ingredients

• Whole wheat flour - 1 cup
• Water - 1/3 cup (or as needed)
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Mixed vegetables (carrot, peas, potato, bell pepper) - 2 cups, chopped
• Oil - 1 tablespoon
• Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
• Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Coriander powder - 1 teaspoon
• Garam masala - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon (adjust to taste)
• Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead into a soft dough. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
2. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
3. Add the chopped mixed vegetables to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
4. Sprinkle turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt over the vegetables. Mix well and cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
5. Stir in the garam masala, chopped cilantro, and lemon juice. Mix well and remove from heat.
6. Divide the rested dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Flatten each ball slightly and roll out into thin circles using a rolling pin.
7. Heat a tawa or flat skillet over medium heat. Cook each roti for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Serve the hot rotis with the vegetable curry on the side.
