Rumali roti || Roti Recipe || How to make Rumali roti with step-by-step photos
Rumali Roti is an unleavened Pakistani and Indian bread traditionally made in Mughlai and Hyderabadi cuisine. This is also one of the most popular breads that is served in Pakistani roadside restaurants or hotels.s
This thin and soft roti can be folded like a handkerchief. If you close your palm to take this roti, it will be hidden in your palm so soft and thin than a normal chapati.s
People like to have this roti with barbeque itemsfriedry fish, kata kat, etc but one thing that is more important about this roti is that it is hotly served because rumali roti gets hard after cooling down.
Just because All-purpose flour is used in rumali roti, if you wanna use wheat flour with plain flour, you can mix it in ½ quantity, such as
½ plain flour, ½ wheat flour,r then mix together to make soft and healthy Rotis. For making rumali roti, an upside-down Tawa will be required. If you don't have a problem, you can take any metal karahi (iron, steel)as a replacement for using replacement of Tawa/skillet.
Tips:
- Sprinkling salt water prevents roti from sticking and also gives a nice traditional taste.
- Do not roast as they will turn hard
- Knead the dough for 10-15 minutes to get a smooth and soft dough
- Alternatively, you can also prepare chapati Tawa
- I added milk to the flour, too. Milk makes the roti softer and more flavorful.
- Do not add too much flour when rolling. If there is a lot of flour covering the rotis, then the rotis will become hard.
- Roll to thin and slightly transparent. Also, roll evenly and keep edges thin if they become thick.
