Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Vegan ghee
- 2 tablespoons Vegan ghee for cooking
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour for dusting
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt.
Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture, stirring with your hand, until the dough begins to come together.
Knead the dough for about 6-8 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.
After resting, add 2 tablespoons of vegan ghee into the dough and knead again to incorporate the ghee, making the dough soft and pliable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll them into balls.
Lightly dust a rolling surface with all-purpose flour to prevent sticking.
Roll each ball into a circle about 6-7 inches in diameter and about 1/8 inch thick.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium heat.
Once hot, place a rolled-out roti onto the skillet.
Cook for about 30 seconds or until bubbles start appearing on the surface, then flip the roti using a spatula.
Apply a small amount of vegan ghee to the cooked side and cook for another 30 seconds.
Flip again, applying a bit of vegan ghee to the other side and let it cook until light brown spots appear.
Remove from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm with your favorite vegan curry or vegetable dish.
