Chappathis or rotis are a common feature at everyone’s home.Specially if you have diabetic patients at home,rotis form a major part of their diet.It is not easy for beginners to roll out perfect shaped rotis and I at the initial stage have made rotis in all shapes and sizes.So in a small attempt to make things easier for those who are new in the kitchen,I think this post might be useful.For rotis to stay soft for a longer time kneading should be properly done.To master it you should constantly make them and you can gain expertise in no time.Here is the recipe and secret to perfectly rolled phulkas..

INGREDIENTS

Whole Wheat Flour	1 cup
Salt	as per taste
Water	as needed
Oil	1 tsp

 

HOW TO MAKE

• Take wheat flour,salt,water and oil and knead to a smooth dough.

• Keep it aside for half an hour or more.Make small roundels and set aside.

• Roll into small chappathis by dusting the balls in flour.

• Heat the tawa and place roti on it.Once cooked flip.

• Place the roti now directly on the tawa.Flip it on the other side to see it raise.

• Soft Phulkas are ready.Serve them hot with any vegetable,dal or pickle.

Notes

• Adding hot water will yield soft rotis.
• You can add milk or curd while kneading the dough.
• Don’t make the dough too tight,it will result in hard rotis.
• Keep the dough soft and pliable,it should be easy for you to roll into thin rotis.
• While placing the rotis over flame,flip it fast so  they don’t get burnt.
