Akki Rotti

Traditional Karnataka rice-flour flatbread (akki = rice in Kannada), patted by hand directly on a hot tawa with grated coconut, finely chopped onion, green chili, curry leaves, and a splash of oil. Canonical south Karnataka breakfast — especially Mysore, Bangalore, and Coorg regions — typically served with green chili chutney, butter, or a dollop of homemade ghee. Naturally gluten-free and distinct from Tamil rice rotis in technique (hand-patted on the tawa itself, not rolled).
