Mix together the flour, butter milk, hing, salt, turmeric and red chilli powder to form a batter.

Mix it well so as to avoid lump formations.

Now keep it for heating on slow flame and stir continuously and evenly till it is cooked i.e for around 10-15 minutes.

Then take a ladleful, pour it in a plate and spread it in one direction with the back of the flat spoon forming a very thin layer.

In the meantime keep the rest of the mixture covered to keep it hot.

Repeat for rest of the batter in other plates.

Now sprinkle grated coconut and chopped coriander leaves over the spread batter in all plates.

Then with the help of a knife cut 2inch wide strips.

Carefully roll each strip and place in a serving bowl.

Repeat for other plates.

Then heat oil in a pan and season it with mustard seeds, cumin seeds,ajwain seeds and sesame seeds.

Pour this seasoned oil over all the rolls evenly.

You can garnish with coriander leaves and serve as a wonderful side dish.
