- Divide the dough into 16 equal portions and roll out each portion into a thin circle of about (5") diameter with the help of a little whole wheat flour for rolling
- Meanwhile heat the Griddle(Tawa/Flat cast Iron skillet) on a medium high heat. Roll them into small balls, Taking one small ball at a time flatten it with a rolling pin , dust the flattened dough with flour on both sides and start rolling them again into a nice round chappati.
- Put this flattened rolled out roti on the hot skillet, cook for about few minutes on both the sides.
- Next hold the roti directly on gas flame & let it cook till you see brown spots appearing on roti .take care not to burn them.
- Flip it on both the sides to get it evenly cooked, apply butter/ghee on both the sides, until it is lovely golden brown in colour, that means it is done.
