Step 1
To make the dough, first mix the flour, salt, and oil together in a large bowl.
Step 2
Add water gradually, kneading all the time with your hand (for 8-10 mins) to make the dough firm and smooth. Cover with a tea towel and leave to rest for 10-15 minutes.
Step 3
Divide the dough into small to medium balls. Roll the balls in the palms of your hands. Dust the balls lightly with flour and roll into a flat round circle using a roti board and rolling pin.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat until it is quite hot. Place the rolled roti onto the pan and turn up the heat slightly.
Step 5
Cook until small bubbles appear on the underside for 20-30 seconds and then turn. Cook this side until the base now has small dark beige spots.
Step 6
Turn the bread over, continue cooking until the roti turns golden and fluffs up. Apply ghee and serve hot.
