Bajra na Rotla or Millet Flour Roti is widely consumed in Western part of India. Gujaratis, Parsis and Maharashtrians regularly add Bajra na rotla as a part of the meal.
I still remember one of our neighbours used to eat Bajra na Rotla and Milk daily evening. It was a fixed menu of that home. To make bajra na rotla you should use “Thapo” method which is described in below recipe.
