Cilantro a Handful of Leaves
Salt to Taste
Lemon Juice 1 Tbsp

Method of preparation:

Warm up the rice for a minute if necessary.
In a mixing bowl, add leftover rice, rice flour and salt.
Knead the mixture well into a soft dough.
Add a few splashes of water if necessary to wet the rice flour.
Add the chopped onion, green chiles, cilantro leaves and lemon juice to the dough and knead again.
Divide the dough into two portions.

Heat a flat pan on medium heat.
Place one portion of the rice mixture on the pan and spread it with wet finger into somewhat thin rotti.
Pour around quarter teaspoon of oil around the spread rice rotti.
Cook till the bottom turns golden brown and turn on other side.
Cook again for couple of minutes and remove from heat.
Repeat the same with remaining portion of the rice mixture.
