Vastad roti

-

Vastad Roti is a very popular Konkani dish (don't have any idea why is it called so), which is prepared for breakfast or dinner. This dish can be called as non-fried Mangalore buns. It is a traditional recipe which is similar to paratha. The dough is similar to Mangalore Buns. The buns are deep fried and vastad roti is fried on tawa with less oil/ghee. Can say it as the healthier version of Buns. This is a very soft and thick roti prepared using maida, banana, curd and pepper. It is bit sweet, bit spicy because of bananas and crushed pepper added to it. 

Here I have used maida and whole wheat flour. Bananas should be very ripe and curd should be fresh.
