Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
Finishing
- 2 tbsp Ghee clarified butter, or as needed
Instructions
Preparing the Dough
- Combine whole wheat flour and salt in a large bowl. Add yogurt and mix well to form a crumbly mixture.
- Gradually add water, 1-2 tablespoons at a time, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. If the yogurt is sufficiently moist, you may not need to add any water. Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rest, covered, for at least 30 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, resulting in softer rotis.
Shaping and Cooking the Rotis
- Divide the rested dough into small, equal-sized balls.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into an oval-shaped roti, about 4-5 inches in diameter. Roll them slightly thicker than regular phulkas, similar to naan.
- Heat a griddle or tawa over medium heat. Place one roti on the hot griddle and cook for about 30 seconds per side, or until lightly browned.
- Now, directly place the roti over the flame for a few seconds on each side to puff it up, similar to cooking a phulka.
- Repeat with the remaining roti balls.
Serving
- Apply desi ghee or butter to each roti. Serve hot with your favorite curries or as a side dish.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Dahi Wali Rotis
- For extra soft rotis, use full-fat yogurt.
- Don't over-knead the dough, as this can result in tough rotis.
- If the dough feels too sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Adjust the cooking time depending on your stovetop's heat; you want the rotis to be cooked through and slightly browned, but not burnt.
