Many variations of flatbreads and roti pie are found in many cultures across the globe, from the Indian subcontinent to Africa to Oceania to the Malay Peninsula to the Americas. The roti is a traditional flatbread from the Indian subcontinent. It is normally eaten with cooked vegetables or curries. In Sri Lanka, there is a variant of roti called pol roti (coconut roti), made of wheat flour. The roti wrap is the commercialization of roti and curry together as a fast-food or street-food item in the Caribbean. This wrap form of roti originated in southern Trinidad.
Make roti (Indian flatbread) in few easy steps :
Ingredients :
2. Water - 1/2 cup
3. Salt - 2 pinches
Preparation :
1. How to knead the dough ?
Mix 3 cups of flour with 1/2 a cup of water, gradually mix, and knead a dough. If the dough gets sticky, this means it has a lot more water content, add little more flour to it. If the dough is hard, add a little water and knead again.
2. Roll out roti :
Make dough balls (8 rotis approx), round it up smooth in between palms. Dust the surface on which you will roll your chapatis/rotis. Press it flat and using a roll pin stretch it out.
To be a pro you need to practice. Make sure you stretch it on all sides, uniformly, and try to make it round. Don't give up, you are an artist !!
3. Flip the rotis and puff it :
Now, heat an iron tawa. I used my old iron tawa as it heats up soon.
Place the roti, wait for a few secs till you see the roti turning white, flip it and wait for 3-4 secs. Now, flip it on both sides 2 more times.
Now, place this roti on wooden handled iron roti grill and roast it on both sides to get round puff ball rotis.
or, you can use roti maker.
