Knead the flour into a soft dough
- Place whole wheat flour in a large mixing bowl.
- Gradually add water while mixing with your fingers.
- Knead until the dough is smooth and non-sticky.
- Cover the bowl and let it rest for 10 minutes.

- Divide the rested dough into four equal-sized balls.
- Roll each ball into a thin, even circle on a floured surface.
- Place the roti on a preheated tava over medium-high heat.
- Flip when small bubbles appear and cook the other side until browned.
TIPEnsure the tava is very hot before placing the roti to prevent it from becoming hard.
