Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 cup Warm water
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
Melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Set aside to cool slightly.
Gradually add the warm water and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix with a spoon or your hands until a soft dough forms. The dough should be pliable and not too sticky. If it’s too sticky, add a little more flour; if it’s too dry, add a bit more water (a tablespoon at a time).
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
Place one dough ball on a clean, flat surface lightly dusted with gluten-free flour. Using a rolling pin, gently roll out each ball into a thin circle, approximately 6-7 inches in diameter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. Add a few drops of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Carefully place the rolled-out dough onto the hot skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until bubbles start forming on the surface.
Flip the roti using a spatula and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes or until both sides have light brown spots.
Remove the roti from the skillet, brush with a little of the remaining unsalted butter for added flavor, and place it in a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm with your favorite curry or dish.
