In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt.
Add the low-fat yogurt to the flour mixture and start mixing with your hand.
Gradually add warm water, a little at a time, and knead the mixture into a smooth dough. Adjust the water quantity as required to achieve a soft but not sticky dough.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10-15 minutes.
Once rested, divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a disk about 5-6 inches in diameter. Add a little flour to the rolling surface if necessary to prevent sticking.
Heat a non-stick tawa or flat skillet over medium-high heat.
Place one rolled-out roti on the hot skillet and cook until you notice bubbles forming on the surface, about 1-2 minutes.
Flip the roti and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, until light brown spots appear.
Once cooked, brush the hot roti lightly with the low-fat butter or spread.
Repeat the process for all the dough balls.
Serve the low-fat butter rotis warm with your favorite curry or side dishes.
