Littis are similar to dinner rolls, a dough made from wheat flour flavoured with carom seeds (ajwain) and spices, stuffed with a spice mix, traditionally baked in a tandoor. These are to be relished with a curry of eggplants, potatoes, tomatoes cooked with chillies, onions, spices and a very important ingredient – mustard oil.
