      Missi Roti is a savory Indian bread made with a combination of whole wheat flour, besan flour and spice powders. This roti is very healthy, high in protein and quite filling too. It tastes so good with Spinach dal or sarson ka saag or raita. I had it with black eyed peas mushroom gravy. You can make this roti recipe for lunch or dinner. It is also perfect travel food.
