Doli ki roti is a classic sour bread recipe from Multan (a province of undivided India now in Pakistan). It’s a very elaborate dish made over three days as the dough needs to be fermented. The dough is made from water fermented with jaggery and spices like poppy seeds, fennel seeds, nutmeg, and cinnamon. These spices give this bread its unique and flavourful taste. The fermented dough is filled with a mixture of split chickpeas, onions and powdered spices and deep-fried in oil.

The Indian sourdough bread Doli Ki Roti is crispy and delicious.
