ಸಿಹಿಗುಂಬಳಕಾಯಿ ರೊಟ್ಟಿ | ಸಿಹಿಗುಂಬಳಕಾಯಿ ಅಕ್ಕಿ ರೊಟ್ಟಿ |

Today actually I was not willing to prepare palya or raita or huli by using red pumpkin or sihi kumbala kayi.

Therefore thought for a while and realised that I was going to prepare akki rotti or rice flour rotti for breakfast, So thought of adding pumpkin to rice flour rotti like we make rotti by using many other kinds of vegetables.

So went ahead and made this sihigumbalakayi akki rotti as I had planned and it turned out too tasty and yummy, moreover it is very quick and easy to make. Therefore very gladly sharing the recipe of the same with you all.
