How To Cook Roti

Roti, the food which most South Asian people eat as a home-made snack. It is of course considered a main meal in India, and also there are other forms of the Roti known as Naan, Chapathi, famous in the middle-east Asia which I'll be telling you how to cook them in other posts.
  Now I am ready to tell you how to cook the basic Roti.

Ingredients:

Wheat Flour 1kg

Salt 11/2 teaspoon

1 Scraped Coconut

Water or Coconut Water



Method:

  Add the flour, scraped coconut and salt together and mix it so that the flour, salt and coconut is evenly distributed. Next add water gradually to the mixture while mixing with your hands. At one point you will see that the dough is no longer sticky, you have reached the best conditions for the dough.

   Now separate small balls from the dough and flatten them on to a plate and place it on a preheated roti  pan.

Leave the flattened dough for a few minutes so that it is slightly crunchy ( do not make it too crunchy or else the roti will have a burnt taste).

Remove it from the pan and you can now enjoy your roti. Or you can eat it with Sri Lankan chillie paste (click here to find out how to make Sri Lankan chili paste)
