ROTI

Steps:

• Sift both flours and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add 1 tbsp of the oil and 175-200ml warm water and bring together to make a soft but not too sticky dough. If it feels a little wet, add a bit more flour.
• Tip the dough onto a lightly floured worktop and knead for 4-5 mins or until smooth and elastic. Set aside in a lightly oiled bowl for 30 mins.
• Divide the dough into six equal-sized pieces (weigh each piece for accuracy if you like). Using a rolling pin roll each one into a thin circle about 18-20cm wide.
• Heat a little of the remaining oil and butter in a heavy-based pan over a high heat. Once foaming, add the rolled out roti, one at a time, and cook for 1-2 mins on each side or until speckled golden brown and beginning to puff up. Set aside on a warm plate until ready to eat.

ROTI

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the flour, oil and salt with 3/4 cup lukewarm water. Knead directly in the bowl until smooth, about 5 minutes. If the dough starts to feel dry, add more water as needed, 1/2 tablespoon at a time. Divide the dough into 12 even balls, placing each ball back in the bowl. Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap. Let rest in a warm place for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. The dough should be soft and spongy.
• Lightly dust your work surface with flour and pat a ball into a thick disk. Use a rolling pin to evenly roll it into a thin, 5-inch-wide disk, flipping and flouring as needed.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Put the disk in the hot pan. When bubbles start to form and the roti starts to turn white, about 30 seconds, flip it over to cook the other side. It should be puffy in places and freckled brown. If you want to fully puff the roti, use tongs to gently place it directly on a low gas flame for about 2 to 3 seconds, then quickly remove it. Use the back of a spoon to lightly coat one side of the roti with ghee, if you like, or leave plain, then tuck into a clean dishcloth to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining dough.
