    Juar jo dhodho or Sindhi jowar roti is an easy meal. It is a sorghum flatbread which is usually eaten for breakfast. A big bowl of yogurt and a dollop of white butter goes best with it. However, if you like to go vegan, serve it with sandhyala achar or onion pickle. You might as well eat it with pickled onions, tomato or a mint chutney and kale smoothie. This dish is similar to potato pancake.

    Both jowar ki bhakri and bajre ki roti have been integral flatbreads in Indian kitchen depending on the season. Nowadays millet and gluten free grains, are used as an alternative to wheat in the West. It might be new to the west but our Ayurveda has always emphasized on eating variety of flour. Corn, sorghum, millet and barley are common and used since generations.

    FAQ

     

    How to make gluten free sorghum flatbread?

    Sorghum flour has no gluten in it. Hence it becomes difficult to roll it. Use a parchment paper while rolling the bread with rolling pin. This will help avoid breakage. Alternatively, you may press a ball of dough in your greased palms repeatedly to get a thick bread.
