Instructions:
-
Prepare the Soft Tacos:
- In a large bowl, combine the jowar, bajra, and whole wheat flours. Add salt to taste.
- Gradually add water and knead the mixture into a soft dough. Once the dough is ready, cover it with a cloth and let it rest while you prepare the toppings.
-
Prepare the Hummus:
- For the hummus topping, you can use your preferred homemade hummus recipe. You can refer to the Classic Homemade Hummus Recipe with Lemon and Coriander for guidance.
-
Prepare the Boiled Eggs:
- Boil the eggs, peel them, and cut them into quarters. Set aside for later.
-
Make the Topping:
- In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until soft.
- Add the sliced onion and cook until golden brown. To enhance caramelization, add a teaspoon of sugar.
- Stir in the broccoli florets and cherry tomatoes. Season with salt, black pepper, and cumin powder. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and bright green.
- Turn off the heat and set the vegetable mixture aside.
-
Make the Soft Tacos:
- Divide the rested dough into medium-sized balls. Dust each ball with whole wheat flour and gently roll it out into a round shape.
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Cook each rolled taco on both sides until light brown spots appear. Ensure they become lightly crisp but remain soft in texture. Set aside.
-
Assemble the Tacos:
- Take a soft taco and spread a tablespoon of hummus evenly on the surface.
- Top with sautéed vegetables (broccoli and cherry tomatoes), and place the boiled egg quarters on top.
- Sprinkle black pepper powder over the taco and serve.
