India is known for its myriad flatbreads -roti’s, parathas, naan’s,kulchas and what not. I have had my share of eating almost all of the different types of flat breads. Although each one is unique in its own right, I have to say that these Sweet Potato Rotis are one of the most yummiest ever. They are moist, they are delightfully chewy and taste like heaven!o.k I dunno what heaven really tastes like – but if they do like these, then I want to go there for sure

I have made quite a few variations of these, but this is the one that I have finally decided to make it regular. I got this one from a gal pal of mine way before during my college days when she bought them over for lunch. I have made few teeny weeny changes to her recipe. The combination of ingredients which are not many plays well together and it is not overly sweet nor sober tasting. Give it a try, you will start singing its praises too.
Method
Cook the sweet potatoes in some water until soft.

Grind it with a food processor until mushy.

Add the rest of the ingredients and make into a soft pliable dough.

Divide into small balls

Press it down with the palm of your hands and roll it thin flatbread

Cook it with little butter (or oil for less calories) until brown

Turn the other side and cook likewise.

Serve hot.
