Akki Rotti(Rice and Cucumber Roti)

This one is my Father's fav dish and my Mom makes this all the time .One can have this roti during breakfast or dinner time. There are few variations in making akki roti...Some make this with rice flour alone.But I have used rice and cucumber together to prepare the batter.Cucumber gives great fresh aroma to your akki roti also kind of makes the roti softer from inside and the rice flour makes it like crispy from outside. It takes a while for the preparation but believe me after making this roti you will know excatly what i am refereing to, it's worth all the effort. This dish will leave you wanting for more, very tasty indeed .!!!. here comes my HAVYAKA STYLE ...Akki rotti Rceipe ...enjoi !!
