ghee or oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

Olive oil is healthier, while vegetable oil is often less expensive.

Start with 2 cups of whole wheat flour.

Add small quantities of water gradually to the flour to form a dough.

Add some oil to the dough to remove stickiness.

Let the dough rest for at least 20 minutes.

Use a rolling pin and rolling board to roll out the dough into thin rotis.

Heat a flat pan over medium to high heat.

Roll the rotis gently, trying to keep them thin and equal in thickness.

Cook the roti on the flat pan until it changes color to brown on both sides.

Move the cooked roti to a steel rack or a piece of cloth to keep it warm.

Optionally brush the roti with butter to keep it soft.
