DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO MAKE DOLI KI ROTI. I KNOW ROUGHLY HOW TO MAKE IT BUT DOES ANYONE KNOW THE PROPER RECIPE. I KNOW IT ROUGHLY AS I HAVE SEEN IT BEING MADE IN CHILDHOOD. THIS ROTI ORIGINATES FROM THE PAKISTANI REGION CALLED MULTAN.

THE RECIPE IS ROUGHLY IS AS FOLLOWS:

SPICES SUCH AS DALCHINI, BADI ELAICHI, LONG, KALI MIRCH, ETC ARE BOILED IN WATER ALONG WITH KHUS KHUS AND GUR (JAGGERY).

THIS WATER IS USED TO MAKE A DOUGH AND LEFT TO RISE. THE RISEN DOUGH IS USED AGAIN TO MAKE ENOUGH DOUGH FOR THE ROTIS. THE DOUGH IS LEFT TO RISE IN A WARM PLACE AND THE ROTIS ARE MADE (EITHER SWEET, STUFFED WITH CHANNA DAL OR PLAIN). THE ROTI IS FAT AND GOLDEN IN COLOUR AS IT IS DEEP FRIED, VERY TASTY. IF ANYONE KNOWS THE PROPER RECIPE WITH THE PROPER PROPORTION OF INGREDIENTS, PLEASE RESPOND

  Hi sanjeeta i asked my mom about the doli ji roti and she told me about it.
  
  she said. soak goor in samll amont of water. and make a dough with the goor and it water, add some sofe sor khushboo. and leave the dough for a while. and make the rotis with oil or better like a paratha and it will be sweet.its very tasty i use to eat when i was small kid.

  Dear Roshi
  
  Thanks for the posted response regarding Doli ki Roti.
  
  It is a strange conicidence, that the recipe for the particular kind of roti with gur that you have posted, we had just the same day made it at home and finished the last lot.
  
  Actually, the Doli Ki Roti is a different roti to the one that you have written about, the one you have written is Gur wali meethi roti, meethi loli.
  
  The Doli Ki Roti is made by the method described not too surely in my post. It was given to daughters when they left the house and comes from the Multan Pakistan region only. It is a fried roti.
  
  Thanks for the post.
  
  Sanjeeta.
