In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour and salt.
Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture while stirring continuously to form a soft dough.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
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.
Dust a rolling surface with flour. Take one dough ball and roll it out into a thin circle approximately 6 inches in diameter.
Spread a small amount of vegan butter (about 1/4 teaspoon) on the surface of the rolled roti.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat.
Place the roti on the hot skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbles start to form on the surface.
Flip the roti and spread a small amount of vegan butter on the cooked side, allowing it to melt.
Cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula for even cooking.
Once both sides are cooked and have golden brown spots, remove the roti from the skillet.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve the vegan butter roti warm with your favorite curry or stew.
