  • Cover with damp towel and set aside for 10 minutes.

  • Place dough on lightly floured work station. Knead for 1-2 minutes to smooth round dough.

  • Divide into equal 12 parts, knead to form round balls and cover with damp cloth.

  • Flatten the balls with the palm of our hand, then using a rolling pin, roll the ball into a circle with 1/8 inches of thickness and 3 inches in diameter. Sprinkle flour if the roti is too sticky to roll. Making the perfect 'round' roti takes some practice, so keep practicing :)
