In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Mix well.
Add the dairy-free ghee to the flour and mix with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the warm water, a little at a time, and knead into a soft, smooth dough. You might not need all the water, so add slowly.
Cover the dough with a damp kitchen towel and let it rest for at least 15 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Flatten one dough ball and dust lightly with flour. Use a rolling pin to roll it into a round circle about 6-7 inches in diameter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium-high heat.
Place the rolled roti on the hot skillet and cook for about 1 minute or until you see bubbles forming on the surface.
Flip the roti and cook the other side for another minute. It's ready when light golden brown spots appear.
Lightly brush the cooked side with a little dairy-free ghee, then flip again and brush the other side.
Press the edges of the roti with a spatula to ensure even cooking, then remove from the skillet.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm with your favorite curry or dish.
