Peel and grated the bottle gourd, got around 2 cups. Add some salt to it and leave it for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes in a large mixing bowl, combine rice flour, grated bottle gourd, onion, coriander leaves, chilli, ginger, salt and cumin seeds.

Crumble the above mixture well. add in required water to make a soft dough.
Add more water if required. and make smooth and soft dough.

Now take a small ball of dough and start patting over oiled aluminum foil or banana leaf.

Pat as thinly as possible. dip your hand in water so that you can spread easily and avoid from having cracks.
Make some holes between so that your rotti can absorb oil and cook fast.

Grease the tava with oil and gently drop the sheet upside down over the hot griddle.
After a minute, Peel off the aluminium sheet slowly without breaking your akki roti.

Smear some oil over the rotti and cook on medium flame. flip over and cook both sides.
Serve the roti hot with chutney of your choice.
