1

Mix 2 cups of flour, 2.5 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a bowl using a whisk.

2

Gradually add water to the dry ingredients, mixing until no dry flour remains.

3

Knead the dough for no more than 5 minutes, using knuckle presses to smooth it out.

4

If the dough is too sticky, add a little dry flour, but keep it sticky overall.

5

Cover the dough with a damp paper towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.

6

After resting, divide the dough into two equal parts to form two rotis.

7

Prepare a clean work surface with a kitchen towel and sprinkle a little dry flour on it.

8

Flatten the dough slightly before rolling it out to your desired thickness, flipping it often to avoid adding too much dry flour.

9

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.

10

Cook the roti for about 30 seconds until bubbles form, then flip it over.

11

If the roti isn't swelling, move it around in the pan to ensure even cooking and adjust the temperature as needed.

12

Cook the roti for a total of about 4 minutes and 10 seconds until fully swollen.

13

Remove the roti from the pan and place it in the microwave for 1 minute to keep it warm and soft.
