Cooking Steps
In a mixing bowl, combine the amaranth flour and wheat flour.
Gradually add water to the flour mixture, a little at a time, while stirring with a spoon or your hands. Keep adding water until you form a soft and pliable dough.
Once the dough comes together, knead it for a minute or two to make it smooth and elastic.
Take the dough ball and place it on a clean, dry surface or rolling board. Use a rolling pin to roll it out into a thin, round roti. You can use a little dry flour to prevent sticking while rolling. Aim for a thickness similar to traditional wheat roti.
Heat a non-stick skillet (tava) over medium-high heat. Once it's hot, gently place the rolled roti on it. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on one side until you see it starting to puff up and brown spots forming.
Flip the roti and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until it's cooked through.
Serve hot.
