Wednesday, January 28, 2009

Ingredients

* 1 cup whole wheat flour
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 cup lukewarm water (Use more if required)
* Oil
* 1/4th cup whole-wheat flour for rolling
Method
1) Mix flour, salt and water to make a soft dough by adding more water as needed, cover and keep aside for 10 mins or more

2) Make the dough into 8 equal balls, take each ball and press with dry flour and roll it to a 6 inch circle by dusting it with the dry flour whenever you feel it is sticking.

3) Heat a skillset and place the Roti and once it starts puffing turn it other side by pressing the Roti either with spatula or with hand using the paper towel. You should see light brown spots on both sides of the Roti

4) Spread butter and keep in a covered container

Notes

> Iron skill sets works best for making Rotis
> always keep the rotis covered so that they will not become hard
> Rotis can be kept outside by wrapping with aluminium foil upto 2 days and can be refrigerated upto a week and heat in microwave before eating
