Thank you so much guys I love it so much thanks yo Gemma to bring someone to show different thing is not the first time she come to your channel God bless with your family
Hi. You can cook roti without an open flame or on an electric stove using a griddle or a cast iron skillet for the best result. Cook the first side of the roti and flip: Once the skillet is hot, place a rolled-out roti onto it. Cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until you see signs of drying, then do the first flip. Cook the second side and flip: Use a spatula to flip the roti over and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. You should start to see bubbles forming on the surface, then do the second flip. Press with a Kitchen Towel: To ensure the roti puffs up, gently press down on it with a clean kitchen towel or folded paper towel while cooking. This helps to create steam inside the roti to allow it to puff all the way. Check for Doneness: Continue cooking until both sides of the roti are cooked through and have golden brown spots. Ensure there are no raw doughy areas left.
Glad that you enjoyed the recipe. Like most people at home, I just get on with it. I am not selling the food I make here, but if I were, it would be a different story. Thanks for watching 😊

Hi Dia. If you can’t find atta or white whole wheat flour, you can try making this with regular whole wheat flour, whole wheat pastry flour, or even all-purpose flour. Each flour will give you slightly different results but will still be delicious.
Yes, you can do that. You can cook roti without an open flame or on an electric stove using a griddle or a cast iron skillet for the best result.

Ensure there are no raw doughy areas left.
I'm confused - a semi normal state of affairs, for me, some days. Ami specifically said NOT to cook until there were brown spots. And it appeared that she only cooked them once on each side. So...that's quite at odds with what you've described above. Did I miss something in the video? Thanks, as always,@@biggerbolderbaking!
That is so relatable !! Asking your mum for recipe always goes the same way, a bit of this and a bit of that 😂 Leaves me more confused than before ! Also roti is something I have attempted and given -up time and again, aiming for a circle and ending up with an amoeba shaped roti 😅

Thank you for your take on this traditional recipe, looks very light and flaky. Hahaha with the Belan for disciplining George (& it came so organically to you).... If only you knew, how all Indian Mums use the rolling pin to discipline the children & use it to instill a sense of fear 😂 Even here in South Africa.
😂 Not Indian, but my mom used to threaten with a wooden spoon. Until I stole them all, snuck them outside when Mom was downstairs doing laundry, and buried them all in the garden, never to be seen again! The garden had been freshly tilled, so all the plants were surrounded by nice, soft soil. I was a (very) precocious 4 years old! And no - I'd never gotten whacked across the butt with one - but the threat...😱 Best wishes, from Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦
Great job, ladies… thank you! Just ordered a belan for future use! I have seen some sweet potato roti recipes that look really good too, could I add sweet potato? And if so, how much please…☺️❤️

I have a question. How do you finish a roti in you don't have a gas/propane stove top?
I was wondering the same thing.

@@biggerbolderbaking 👍🏻
Is there an alternative to ghee that you can brush on?
Butter....even regular oil is fine
You can use butter in place of ghee. I hope this helps.
Thank you. I thought butter or normal oil but wanted to be clear before I tried them.Thank you. I’ll be giving it a shot with my son.
Yummy
I make them all the time but I use regular multi-purpose flour and add some warm water. But it's exhausting rolling them out.
Indians are a pro at rolling these..our staple diet😊
Yes, it can be. Maybe reserve them for when you want some. Thanks for being here.
What if you don’t have gas .?
I do mine in an ordinary pan!! Works just as well!! Xx❤

@@biggerbolderbaking Thanks Gemma! 🤩🤩🤩
The water you use to the flour is it hot or cold water.
Room temperature will do well in this recipe. Hope this helps.
I have an induction top. Can the roti be heated ' cooked on a non stick pan?? Great vid!
Yes, you can do that.

Hey Gemma!!!!!! I love this video!!!! and can we get a recipe for trini roti pleasesssssssss.🤤 thank you!!!!! love Brissa❤❤❤
I can't promise, but I'll look into it. Thank you for watching!
Whats the purpose of rolling the dough in flour?
So it does not stick to the surface. It also helps with the resulting texture.
Thank you for your take on this traditional recipe, looks very light and flaky. Hahaha with the Belan for disciplining George (& it came so organically to you)....

Great job, ladies… thank you! Just ordered a belan for future use! I have seen some sweet potato roti recipes that look really good too, could I add sweet potato? And if so, how much please…☺️❤️
I think adding it is technically possible. But as I have not tried it yet, I can't recommend measurements or method.
@@biggerbolderbaking - if I figure it out, I’ll let you know!😉
You’re both left handed?

Yeah. Made & love Eating Roti's. Hutokshi, I AM A Parsi Lady, Migrated 2 Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️ 😍 ♥️ 💕 💖 🇦🇺 😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
