Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 3/4 cup Water
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 cup Ghee
- 2 tablespoons Extra ghee for cooking
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt.
Gradually add water while mixing, until the dough begins to form.
Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and pliable.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal parts and roll each part into a ball.
Lightly dust a flat surface with flour and roll each dough ball into a flat circle of about 7 inches in diameter using a rolling pin.
Heat a non-stick tawa or skillet over medium heat.
Place one rolled roti on the hot skillet and cook for about 1 minute until bubbles start to appear on the surface.
Flip the roti over using tongs and cook the other side, using a little ghee on the top side.
Press gently with a spatula to help the roti cook evenly and puff up.
Once both sides have golden brown spots, remove the roti from the skillet.
Immediately brush a thin layer of ghee over the surface of the hot roti.
Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Serve the ghee roti hot with your favorite curry or dal.
