Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
- Oil as needed
Directions
Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the water and mix to form a dough. Knead, then let stand for 30 minutes. Knead again and divide into 4 balls.
On a floured board roll out each ball as thin as possible- to a diameter of 8-10 inches.
In a large skillet or griddle over medium heat, add enough oil to coat the pan. Cook each roti for about 1 1/2 minutes per side, drizzling additional oil onto each side as it cooks. Remove carefully and drain on paper towels.
