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.

This blueberry galette, with its rustic appearance, is fun to make when fresh blueberries are in season. I enjoy the higher crust-to-fruit ratio. Serve with ice cream.
Chef John's Deviled Eggs
My deviled eggs recipe is fairly standard, except I like to add a little cream cheese. Unlike mayonnaise, cream cheese firms up when chilled, and provides a little more luxurious texture.
