How to Make Aloo Roti Potato Rotis

  1. Boil 1 medium-sized potato until tender. Peel and mash thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed potato with 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder (optional).
  3. Add 1/4 cup water gradually, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Do not knead.
  4. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 6-inch circle using a rolling pin. Add a little more flour to prevent sticking if necessary.
  6. Heat a flat griddle or skillet over medium heat.
  7. Cook each roti for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through. Use tongs to flip to prevent tearing.
  8. Serve hot with your favorite curry or chutney.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
