5. Cauliflower Roti
Yes, you don’t really always need flour to make rotis. Grated cauliflower can as well do the job. Grate cauliflower, for 2 cups of cauliflower, add 1 tbsp psyllium husk. Add some salt and green chillies, and knead lightly. Since this is a mixture and not kneaded flour, you will have to place the mixture on a flat surface and flatten with your hands. You can also use parchment paper and when the roti is flattened, simply toss on the tawa to cook.
