In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, minced garlic, red chili flakes, and salt.
Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the dry ingredients and mix well using your fingers until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Slowly add water, a little at a time, and knead the mixture into a smooth and pliable dough. The dough should not be sticky or too dry. Adjust the water as needed.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls.
Lightly flour a work surface and roll each ball into a thin round, about 6 inches in diameter.
Heat a skillet or tawa over medium-high heat.
Place one rolled-out roti on the dry skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until you see bubbles forming on the surface.
Flip the roti and brush with a little oil. Cook for another 1-2 minutes or until both sides develop light brown spots.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.
Once all rotis are cooked, garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
