Shape the dough into a smooth ball and let it rise for 30 minutes, covered with plastic wrap.

Divide the dough into small balls and let them rise for another 5 minutes.

Roll out each ball into flat discs.

Boil some potatoes with a bit of salt, then mash them.

Blend 1 clove of garlic and 1/2 red chili (seedless) together.

Mix the garlic and chili with the mashed potatoes and add 1 teaspoon of ground cumin.

Take one rolled disc and fill it with 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture, then shape it back into a ball.

Roll out the filled ball again and place it in a pan.

Brush the roti with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and cook, flipping every 2 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned and the roti puffs up.
