Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Tapioca Flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Warm Water
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well to combine.
Step 2
Gradually add warm water to the dry ingredients, mixing with your hand to form a soft dough. The dough should be smooth and slightly sticky.
Step 3
Add olive oil to the dough and knead it for about 5 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Step 5
Lightly dust a clean surface with gluten-free flour and gently roll each dough ball into a thin disc, about 10-12 inches in diameter. Aim for a paper-thin thickness.
Step 6
Preheat a large, flat, non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat.
Step 7
Carefully place the rolled out roti onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on one side until small bubbles appear and the edges begin to lift.
Step 8
Flip the roti and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until lightly golden brown spots appear.
Step 9
Once both sides are cooked, carefully fold the roti in half and then in half again to form a quarter of a circle.
Step 10
Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.
Step 11
Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free rumali roti with your favorite Indian curry or dish.
