Dough Ingredients

Garlic Butter

Method

Preparing the Dough

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of whole wheat flour and 1 tsp of salt. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Gradually add 3 ml of water and 1 tbs of oil to the flour mixture. Knead until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.

  3. 3

    Rest the Dough

    Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Making Garlic Butter

  1. 4

    Prepare Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt 2 tbs of butter over low heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tbs of chopped cilantro.

Cooking the Roti

  1. 5

    Divide the Dough

    Once the dough has rested, divide it into equal-sized balls (about the size of a golf ball).

  2. 6

    Roll Out the Roti

    On a floured surface, take one dough ball and roll it out into a circle about 6-7 inches in diameter.

  3. 7

    Cook the Roti

    Heat a tandoor or a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the rolled-out roti onto the hot surface and cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until lightly browned.

  4. 8

    Apply Garlic Butter

    Once the roti is cooked, brush it generously with the prepared garlic butter while it's still hot.

  5. 9

    Repeat

    Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
