In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, minced garlic, red chili powder, and salt.
Gradually add water to the dry ingredients, mixing continuously with your hand or a spoon, until a dough begins to form.
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the dough and knead it for about 5-7 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle a little more flour as needed.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the rested dough into 8 equal-sized balls and flatten each into a disc.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat and lightly grease it with some of the remaining olive oil.
Place the rolled dough onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until small bubbles begin to form on the surface.
Flip the roti and cook for another minute on the other side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking. Repeat until lightly golden brown with spots.
Remove the cooked roti from the pan and keep warm in a clean kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve the Dairy-Free Garlic Chili Roti warm, pairing it perfectly with your favorite dairy-free curry or dip.
