Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-Free Flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Warm Water
- 4 tablespoons Ghee
- 0.5 teaspoons Carom Seeds (Ajwain)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of gluten-free flour, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, and 0.5 teaspoons of carom seeds.
Step 2
Gradually add 1 cup of warm water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously with a spoon or your hand until it begins to form a soft dough.
Step 3
Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and pliable. If the dough feels too sticky, sprinkle a little more flour; if it's too dry, add a few drops of water.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape them into small balls.
Step 5
Heat a tawa or flat skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Using a rolling pin, flatten one dough ball on a lightly floured surface into a disc about 6 inches in diameter.
Step 7
Once the tawa is hot, place the rolled-out dough on it and cook for about 1-2 minutes on one side until bubbles start to form.
Step 8
Flip the roti and apply 1 teaspoon of ghee on top. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking. Flip again and let the ghee-side cook until both sides have nice golden brown spots.
Step 9
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Step 10
Serve the gluten-free ghee roti warm, paired with your favorite curry or dish.
