Sel Roti
Sel Roti is a traditional Nepalese ring-shaped rice bread, often prepared during festivals like Tihar and Dashain. It's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, made from rice flour and a blend of spices.
🧂 Ingrediënten
- 2 cups Rice(short-grain or medium-grain, like Basmati or Sona Masoori)
- 3 cups Water(for soaking and grinding)
- 1/4 cup Sugar(or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp Salt(or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom powder
- for deep frying Ghee or Vegetable Oil
👨🍳 Instructies
- 1
Rinse the rice thoroughly and soak it in water for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight.
💡 Pro Tips: Soaking is crucial for achieving the right texture. - 2
Drain the soaked rice and grind it into a fine paste using a food processor or a traditional stone grinder. Add a little water as needed to achieve a smooth, thick batter, similar to pancake batter.

In a bowl, combine the rice paste with sugar, salt, and cardamom powder. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.
💡 Pro Tips: Taste the batter and adjust sweetness and salt as per your preference. - 4
Heat ghee or oil in a deep pan or kadai over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
💡 Pro Tips: To test if the oil is ready, drop a small amount of batter; it should sizzle and rise to the surface. - 5
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the hot oil, swirling your hand to create a ring shape. Alternatively, use a specialized mold if available.
💡 Pro Tips: Work carefully to avoid splashing hot oil. - 6
Fry the Sel Roti for about 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Flip gently to ensure even cooking.

Remove the Sel Roti from the oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining batter.
