Soft Roti Tips: Indian plate is considered incomplete without bread. Whether there are any vegetables, lentils or rice in the plate, if there is no bread, then the food seems incomplete. From rolling the bread properly to bake it properly, it has to be taken care of. It is not easy to make soft and flaky rotis, but keep some things in mind, it is not so difficult.
Often people complain that their rotis become tough quickly. The main reason for this is not kneading the dough properly or not cooking the bread at the right temperature. If you adopt some easy home tips, then the rotis will not only become soft but will remain soft for a long time.
Bhagyavati, a resident of Bilaspur, who is making bread in the kitchen, said that the main ingredient to make bread is wheat flour (two cups), salt as per taste, water and one to two teaspoons of oil. First of all, add salt to the dough and add water slowly and knead it well. Keep in mind that the dough is neither too hard nor too loose. It should be slightly soft than the puri flour.
When the dough is ready, add one to two teaspoons of oil to it and keep mashing the flour with your wrist for at least five minutes. This will set the dough well and the rotis will become more soft. After this, cover the dough with a wet cloth and keep it for 10 minutes so that the dough becomes even more set.
Now make small dough dough dough and roll out round roti sprinkling a little dry flour on each dough. For a flaky and puffy chapati, you can bend it by applying some oil on the rolled bread and then rolling. By this method, layer is formed in chapatis and when cooked, they swell well.
While cooking the bread, the griddle should be well heated and the flame should be kept medium. After putting the roti on the pan, cook for 10 seconds, then turn, apply light oil and cook on both sides. Store all the rotis in a hot box. With this, they will remain warm and soft for a long time.
