This Rava rotti is my all time favorite. It suits for breakfast, lunch and even for evening snacks. Courtesy for this recipe goes to my dear sister, who taught this recipe to me.. Some people call it by the name Kaayi Rotti, since Kaayi (coconut) is one of the main ingredients in this recipe.

Rava (Semolina) Rotti (ರವಾ ರೊಟ್ಟಿ)
A savory semolina flatbread packed with grated vegetables and coconut — also known as Kaayi Rotti — perfect for breakfast, lunch, or evening snacks.
Ingredients
- Semolina (sooji rava) – approx. 3 cups
- Onion – 2, finely chopped
- Green chillies – 6–7
- Grated coconut – 1 cup
- Curry leaves, finely chopped – 1 teaspoon
- Curd – a little, as needed
- Salt – to taste
- Grated mixed vegetables of your choice (carrot, capsicum, bottle gourd, etc.) – up to 1½ cups
Instructions
- Mix semolina, grated vegetables, finely chopped onion, green chillies, curry leaves, grated coconut, and salt in a mixing bowl into a dough.
- If needed, add some curd and mix well.
- Keep the dough covered for about 20 minutes.
- Take small portions of dough, shape into balls, and flatten them into rotis with your hands on a greased plastic sheet.
- Place the rava rotti on a heated tawa and apply some oil.
- Once cooked on both sides, remove and serve with butter.
Tips
- Flattening the rotti on a greased plastic sheet (rather than directly with hands) makes shaping much easier, especially with a wet, vegetable-heavy dough.
- Adjust the number of green chillies to control the spice level to your family's taste.
