Quality of flour

Kneading the dough

Kneading the dough give the rotis the required texture. Knead the dough by hand, and make sure you let it rest for at least 15 minutes.  

Rolling

While rolling the rotis, make sure you flatten the edges with your hands first. Ensure that the surface is dry and dust it properly before rolling the rotis.  

Roasting

Heat a tawa 2-3 minutes before you start rolling a roti. When on the tawa, flip the roti once you start seeing bubbles. Press the edges from a dry cloth till you get a perfectly puffed roti.
