In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Gradually add the warm water to the dry mixture, stirring continuously with a spoon or spatula until a dough begins to form. The mixture will absorb the water quickly, resulting in a pliable dough.
Using your hands, knead the dough for about 2-3 minutes until it is smooth and no longer sticky. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more almond flour; if it's too dry, add a splash of water.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Flatten each ball slightly with your palms and set them aside.
Place a non-stick tawa or skillet over medium heat and allow it to warm up for about 2 minutes.
Take one dough ball and place it between two sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll it out into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter. Repeat this process with the remaining dough balls.
Gently peel off the top parchment paper and place the rolled dough onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the roti has browned spots and is cooked through.
Brush each side of the cooked roti with a little ghee or coconut oil for added flavor and moisture.
Serve warm with your favorite Indian curry or dip.
