Roti bread is an unleavened griddle bread from India that is similar to pita bread. Ideally, I use a traditional Indian roti griddle called a tava.
Ingredients
- 2 cups durum wheat flour
- 0.75 cups water
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
Instructions
-
1
Stir flour, water, oil, and salt together in a medium bowl until well combined and pulling away from the sides. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead until smooth and pliable, about 10 minutes.
-
2
Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Form each piece into a round. Working with one round at a time while all others are covered with a damp cloth, flatten with the palm of your hand, then use a rolling pin to roll into 6- to 8-inch diameter circle.

3
Heat a dry skillet or tava over medium-high heat. Cook one roti at a time in the hot skillet until golden with some darker brown spots, about 1 minute per side, As it cooks, roll the next roti. Serve warm.

Southern Made Cheese Ball
This delicious cheese ball was developed and modified by me, and every time I serve it I am forced to share the recipe with everyone who tastes it. I roll mine in diced green onion, pecans (or other nuts) or bacon bits before serving. Try experimenting with different types of meats and cheeses. It's a great appetizer for any party. This one will be gone first. Enjoy!
Crispy Indian Okra
This great okra side dish with Indian spices can also be served as a snack or appetizer.
Delicata Squash Gratin
Delicata is a small winter squash with an edible skin, which makes it a breeze to prepare! Wash, slice off the ends, then halve it lengthwise, seed it, and cut into half moon shapes. It is excellent on its own, simply roasted, or baked in this lovely cheese sauce.
