omg this was so easy and fool proof.. i'm in love.. only thing i did differently was to use a regular frying pan and all purpose flour .. my only complaint is that i didn't make more.. ty so much for a wonderful recipe.. like another reviewer.. i'd love to see ideas for other ingredients to add (with amounts) to this.. also, i used Bijay's technique to cook the rotis to make sure they come out soft.. cant wait to make more

Nearly perfect recipe! I do agree with other reviews, that WARM water should be used- easier to work with & a much better end result. Had no bread flour on hand, so I dissolved some yeast in the warm water & added that for a quick version with ingredients I had. I'm not sure why (and disagree) of some reviews saying this has no 'flavor' & were adding in additional spices... true roti does not contain an abundance of flavor or additional spices. It is meant to be eaten with other dishes containing the heavier spices & flavor. Every true middle-eastern cuisine roti I have ever tried does not contain spices, only the small amount of salt. I also divided the dough into 12 smaller balls to flatten and cook, just as a personal preference since it was being used for various dips as an appetizer. Guaged the cook time on when brownish spots began to form & the roti would start to 'bubble' up in a few areas. Great, fresh out of the pan & also great leftover- this can accompany such a variety of various appetizers, dips, or main dishes. It is best left as-is, no spices added & leaving all the flavor to whatever dish goes along with it. Much appreciation for sharing the recipe!

Easy to make and we really liked it. Will make again in the future.

Super easy, and turned out lovely. I used olive oil and a drop of sesame oil in the dough. Yummy!

I really like this recipe! I've made it twice and am going to make it again tonight. It is great with hummus or used as a small tortilla would be. I like that this bread is economical and can be made fresh very easily. Thanks for sharing this recipe. I will make it very often!

I love this stuff! It tastes better when you use melted butter in lieu of the oil. Also use copious amounts of butter to fry it. You only live once right?? Yum. I blogged about this recipe!

Wonderful! Fry in ghee and serve with curry. Make your own ghee by simmering organic unsalted butter until it quiets (no water boiling out) and milk solids fry golden brown. Strain through a cheesecloth and store in a plastic container in the fridge for up to a year.

I added boiling hot water. This made the roti softer & more moist. They are now a family favourite!

this was okay, I can't tell if it was my technique or the recipe that failed me though! I am of indian decent and I was hoping for soft roti like my grandmother used to make but I found these dry and crispy.

Very good recipe! I used all whole wheat flour, which turned out great. I added 1 tsp garlic powder to the dough, and after rolling it out, I brushed both sides with extra oil and then spread curry powder and some extra garlic powder and salt on one side. Flipped it after 5-6 sec and then cooked it for 1 min on the other side, then flipped it over again. YUM!
