ROTLI
I am posting this recipe for rotli otherwise known as roti or
chappatis. The rotli is the most common bread prepared in the Indian
household. This is consumed almost everyday and is made with just
flower, water and a little bit of oil. Some people prefer to top their
rotli with ghee or butter, others not so.
In most household rotli
accompanies curries and daals and kids are often encouraged to have a
rotli with sliced banana, sugar or even condensed milk. Rotli can be
eaten warm or cold, it can be fried, re-roasted or even shredded into
small bitesized bits that are then tempered with some mustard seeds and
masala. Rotlis are now also being used instead of the white flour wraps
to create healthier sandwiches and can form a part of all daily meals
from breakfast to dinner.
1 cup wheat flour
3 tab sp oil
1/2 cup warm water
ghee.
Makes 15 rotlis
Mix all the above ingredients in a bowl and knead the soft dough. Divide the dough in to 15 equal portions and roll in to small circles.Heat the griddle and cook on both the sides. The application of ghee is optional.
