Millet Flatbreads (Rotlo)

Recipe from Indiaphile
Makes 8

2 cups millet flour (also called bajri flour)
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup water
1 tsp ghee (or coconut oil)

Mix the flour, salt and water in a bowl. The dough will look a little like clay.

Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add a bit of ghee and wipe the pan out quickly with a paper towel. Drop 1/4 cup batter into the hot pan and spread it around with a metal spatula. It should look like a thin crepe. Cook briefly and flip when the edges are dry. Serve warm.
