What You’ll Need
- 2 cups Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Method
Step One
First, in a bowl, combine your 2 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix these dry ingredients together until they’re fully integrated with each other.
Step Two
Next, slowly start to pour in your 1 cup of water, bit by bit. As you do, use your other hand or a mixing utensil to combine the water with the flour and salt. Keep adding the water gradually until your mixture has formed into a dough. Depending on your flour, you may not need all the water.
Step Three
Once your dough has formed, add your 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Work this through your dough until it’s fully combined. Once the oil is mixed in, knead the dough a little with your hands to ensure everything is well mixed.
Step Four
Now it’s time to shape your roti. Split your dough into small balls – how many will depend on the size of roti you want, typically about 12. Then, using a rolling pin and a surface lightly dusted with some gluten-free flour, roll each ball out into a thin disc.
Step Five
Heat up a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat. Place one of your roti onto the griddle and cook it for about a minute, or until it starts to puff up and brown spots appear on the underside. Flip your roti and repeat this on the other side. Once your roti is cooked, remove it from the griddle and place it on a plate while you repeat this step with the rest of your roti.
Step Six
Once all of your roti are cooked, they’re ready to be served! They can be enjoyed alone, or with your favorite curries or dippings. Enjoy your gluten-free roti!
