Beaten rice with multi flour rooti

Last week when I was searching something,,I found some of my old cook books...I was happy and just having a look on one of those book....and I found this recipe..which I felt something interesting and may be yummy to eat....so on the very next day I tired this rooti...for which they have mention as 'Beaten rice paratha'.....
But as this is not a paratha I thought of changing the name bit..and also they have mention to deep fry these rooti's..but I cooked in Tawa...

The final result was very good....so thought of sharing with all of you...hope all will enjoy..

Ingradents:
I used small cups(made 10 rooti's)
Beaten rice 2cup(use thin)
Semolina 1/4 cup
Self raising flour 1cup
Rice flour 1/4 cup
Coriander powder 2tsp

grated ginger 1TBSP
finely chopped green chilly 3-4(or as per ur taste)
Fresh finely chopped coriander 1/4 cup
water to make dough+ to dip the finger
Silver sheet (can use any shape..i used a square shape)

Preparation:
Soak the beaten rice in water for 5mins.mix all the flour in a bowl add chopped chilly,corionder grated ginger salt,coriander powder and soaked beaten rice...and prepare dough by adding water.like below

Now grease the sliver sheet and take a portion of dough(big lemon size approx) and dip your fingers in water and spread the dough in a circle shape as thin as possible.

Heat the tawa and put the rooti(along with the silver sheet) after 1-2 mins you will be able to take of the silver sheet.

Now cook both the side properly.till red spot comes.....

Now the rooti is ready to serve.......
