Ingredients:
1/4 lb. of fresh grated coconut
1 1/2 cups of all purpose white/brown flour
5 small red onions or 1/2 big onion
1 tsp crushed red chillies (optional)
2 green chillies
1 egg (optional)
2 tsp of maldive fish pieces (optional)
A pat of butter or margarin or 1 tsp veg.oil
A few curry leaves
Salt to taste

Method:
Chop red onions, green chillies and curry leaves. In a bowl mix all the ingredients well. Lastly add the sifted flour with a little cold water and prepare the dough. Divide the dough into small balls about the size of a lime. Stretch and flatten each ball on a greased or damp oil paper or a plate.

The size of the rotti could vary. It should be round and not too thick. Transfer it on to a heated griddle or a flat crepe pan and cook them on both sides till they get brown and golden colour.

Serve hot with lunumiris or seeni sambol or meat/fish curry or with jam as desired.
