Cooking Steps
In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, besan.
Gradually add water while kneading the mixture to form a soft, pliable dough.
Knead for a few minutes until the dough is smooth and consistent.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes. This makes it easier to roll out the rotis.
Take a dough into small portion, roughly the size of a golf ball.
Take one portion, flatten it slightly, and dust it with a little dry wheat flour.
Roll out the dough portion into a thin, round roti using a rolling pin.
Heat a tawa or skillet over medium heat.
Once hot, place the rolled roti onto the tawa.
When you see small bubbles forming on the surface of the roti, flip it over using a spatula.
Cook the other side until light golden brown spots appear.
Remove the roti from the tawa and place it on a plate.
Serve hot.
