Perfect ROTI RECIPE For Beginners: Step By Step

[@DouglasRoy-n4x]

Crikey. I've tried to make rotis for longer than I can remember. Alwa edible but hard. Your method has resulted in the nicest soft rotis. I'll now be proud to offer them to family. Thanks.

[@sarsurab2778]

Great teacher

[@frankfrank6541]

Excellent. Thank you for sharing this. Good luck.

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Thank you 😊👍

[@gm7011]

We would pull the pan off center and have the flame exposed and turn it onto the flame so the edges will cook and when the roti hits the flame it puffs up. We never had a roti grill but I would definitely buy it if I ever saw one!

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Yes that's another way of doing it too.

[@nitelite78]

9:15 Nice skills!!!

[@dryflyman7121]

Thank you Shamsa. My understanding has always been that a ‘Roti’ is a chapati recipe but which is cooked in a tandoor oven whereas a chapati is initially cooked on a very hot Tava and then flamed on the ventilated Roti flippa. I make these at home regularly and have found by trial and error that if you use cold water in your flour mix the chapati is tough BUT if you use hot water and then roll the dough mix in a little oil before resting, the chapati is soft and fluffy. Perfect Chapati every time ! ❤

[@NBenjamin-18]

Just want to jump in and say that roti & chapati are indeed one & the same, that is why Shamsa states it that way. There is no difference really, they are synonymous. I grew up hearing this word used interchangeably at home for chapatis. You can easily get tandoori roti in the bazaar in India & Pakistan. Most people don’t have a tandoor in their home, although my maternal grandparents had one, however it’s just a different method of cooking using the same flour. Naan, of course are different, as I’m sure you know, the flour used & method of cooking is traditionally different, traditionally cooked in a tandoor. However many people now cook make them at home in a variety of ways. Hope that clears that up. 😊

You should! So simple but delicious 😊

[@mauricesmith5871]

Brilliant tips 👏

[@whitebeardskitchen6473]

Great! One day I'll remember to buy the roti flour when buying my spices etc. Kick myself every time I come home without it and chickpeas flour! Thanks for sharing Shamza.

[@raykwon7]

This is so weird - I was looking down the list of roti recipes and chose this video because the picture of the roti most resembled the rotis my mum makes....then you introduced yourself as Shamza - and my mum's name is Shamsa! 🤯🤯

[@angelacoulson2364]

Oh I will do this as soon as the flour arrives

[@darren990]

super video im over the moon you can use a mini fishing stove better the stove way ,and your rolling hand technic amazing you can see you have been doing it from early age with year of experience

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Thanks 👍 Darren!

[@taono]

youve done this before shamza i can tell lol,..i have one of those flipper thingys they are great, i make my own chappati too and some puff up like a dream and when they do i feel like a pro, while other puff then puncture, rough with the smooth eh! great tutorial again btw.

[@MitaleeNubeebuckus]

I only found your channel yesterday. Very informative 👏 thank you so much 🙏🏿 This method of making roti is simple yet so tasty. Tandoori chicken recipe is yum too 🎉❤ keep making videos 🎉

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Thank you so much 🙂

[@shabayaba123]

I've made a few of your curries, they taste just like my mums curries

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Aww thank you for sharing this with me 🤗🙏

[@deanwild7641]

These look so good for mopping up a curry 🙌🙌🙌

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Oh yes!

[@astronomyshed]

Belting video, I've been cooking Indian since the 80's and I still learnt from this, I don't use a teatowel to press mine though I use a ball of kitchen roll that I also use to wipe off my tawa occasionally as I make about 15 chapattis in a batch and the tawa needs an occasional wipe. I never got on with elephant atta though and finally settled on Pilsbury Chakki Atta which I feel gives me nicer chapattis. You seem to have a local northern accent so I am also open to invites to taste your food! 😂 Nice job though and a superb channel

[@dushyantvazarkar5190]

I love your UK accent. :) :) Love from Tokyo :) :)

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Thank you 🙌

[@gm7011]

Where did you get thay grate to have the roti swell??? Ingenious!!

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Most Asian grocery store or supermarket should sell them. 👍

[@barlow2976]

Great video, as always. How thick do you roll it out to?

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

As thin as possible. Just ensure it's even all round 👍

[@TheBaconeaterz]

"Subbed" Thank you from Australia :)

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@MercyseaOfficial]

Do you use Elephant Atta Medium or fine White ?

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Hi, I use the medium 😊👍

[@gdkjones]

Awesome. Gonna try this. Thanks for sharing. If you haven’t already Shamza, could you post a paratha recipe? I love roti but paratha is my favourite Indian bread 😋

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Hi, I've already uploaded a 3 way paratha recipe, just search for it ony channel and enjoy 😊🙌

[@gdkjones]

@@MyLittleKitchenRecipes Fantastic. Thanks for your reply. X

[@JulesMadeThis24]

Do you think you could do a video making these with gluten free flour? Chickpea/rice perhaps? I’d love to cook and eat these with your curries 😊

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Great idea! I'll definitely try 😊🙌

[@sandyinmids]

Ive never used a flipper just threw it around in the flame, but it does look useful.

[@chaddamp2894]

hi... where did you get the beautiful tea towel from x

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Hi, that was from Homesense 😊

[@SanjayPatel-tr7kj]

Can you do a similar video for Tandoori Roti’s.

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Will do 😊🙌

[@urwanaseem9403]

Pls share the link for the video where u showed how to make it on electric stove. Thanks! ❤

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Kindly search for it on the channel under roti and it should pop up 😊

[@SanaKhan-ox8mf]

Did you used elephant medium?

[@zahrahussein7143]

It's getting it rolled round tried a number of times

[@atikakc2928]

Not adding oil to the atta ?

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Doesn't need it when your cooking on gas. I only add oil when I'm making these on a ceramic hob as the intense heat tends to dry them out. You can add oil if you wish.

[@mmhuq3]

Should i rub oil / butter to keep it soft?

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

You may of you wish. I normally don't as I only make as many as I need.

[@slimyshady]

so this lady is reallly gorgeous, is an amazing cook, is always thinking about her family and seems like a genuinely nice lovely lady, bloody hell how do I strike a lottery like this? :D

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Thank you so much 😊🙌

[@hatherlow]

I need one of those flippers

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

I'll try to link one for you 😊👍

[@hatherlow]

@@MyLittleKitchenRecipes thx found one in an asian supermarket in Rusholme

[@saimaa9198]

How do you know if there are parts that are raw

[@duncanmit5307]

💜👍💜👍

[@shafaq007]

Shamza how about going live and telling us about yourself. I would love to know more about you and your family.

[@saimaa9198]

Why does my roti go stiff it puffs up and when i serve its quite hard and stiff

[@Dentdale23]

My dad would use the gas hob as a griddle and flip them over the direct flames.

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Yes that's another way too 🙌

[@asmamadi6092]

Is it made from wholemeal flour? Can we use wholemeal flour instead?

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Mine is mix of wholemeal and white flour but yes you can use wholemeal for this recipe.

[@Taseeer62]

Whole wheat chaki atta chopri hoi roti.....

[@vanessa2888]

I tried and my dough is sticky, even though I added more flour.

[@asmamadi6092]

I did try today, but i failed, they became so hard 😢

[@navafsar]

My roti never puffs up. I tried so many times. I dont even know what I am doing wrong😢

[@sean550]

I got east end brand not as good as elephant id say...

[@MyLittleKitchenRecipes]

Never used the East End brand other than their spices so cannot comment but Elephant Atta is the best in my opinion too

[@Socalpetshop1]

Takes too long to show how it's done
