Whole Wheat Unleavened Breads (Rotis) image

Nothing is more basic, simple and pervasive in kitchens across India than griddle breads. Interchangeably known as rotis or chappatis, these breads are torn into bite-size pieces, wrapped around morsels of food and devoured-making them an excellent substitute for flatware, too!

Time 49m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups chappati flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 to 1/ cup warm water
Clarified Butter (Ghee), melted

Steps:

  • Mix flour and salt in medium bowl. Stir in warm water, 2 tablespoons at a time, until a fairly stiff dough forms.
  • Knead dough in bowl or on lightly floured surface 2 to 3 minutes or until dough becomes smooth and pliable. Brush dough with Clarified Butter and cover with plastic wrap; set aside 10 to 15 minutes. (At this point, dough can be covered and refrigerated up to 24 hours. When ready to roll, let dough stand at room temperature 30 minutes so it becomes soft and easy to handle.)
  • Divide dough into 8 equal pieces; return them to bowl and cover. Heat heavy 8-inch skillet over medium heat.
  • Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll into 6-inch circle on lightly floured surface. Cook dough in skillet 2 to 4 minutes, turning once, until brown spots start to form on bottom and bubbles start to appear on surface. Remove from skillet; brush with butter. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Wrap cooked breads in aluminum foil to keep warm while cooking remaining dough.

I thought the rotis were a little too thick. Next time, I'll roll them out thinner. Otherwise, this is a good recipe and I'll definitely be making it again.

Good, but not outstanding.

I found that the dough was a little too dry. Next time, I'll add a little more water. Overall, though, this is a great recipe and I'll definitely be making it again.

These rotis are a great way to use up leftover whole wheat flour. They're also a good source of fiber and protein. I like to serve them with hummus or yogurt.
