    What is Roti?

    Roti is an unleavened Indian flatbread made with atta (Indian whole wheat flour/chapati flour). This is one of the most common flatbreads in India and is made using just two basic ingredients - atta and water. It is typically served with dal and curries, cooked on a griddle and then on an open flame. Roti is very versatile and can be used for wraps, tacos, quesadillas, and even as a pizza base.

    About this recipe

    Soft and spicy masala roti is a great variation from plain roti by adding aromatic spices to the flour. It can be paired with dal and curry for lunch or just plain raita for a quick and filling breakfast.

    You can customize it as per your liking and adjust the spices accordingly. It is loved by kids and great for lunchboxes. The most important thing to keep in mind when making it in the Rotimatic is that you can use only dry powdered spices and mix them with the atta (chapati flour).

    Ingredients

    Atta: I have used the Aashirvaad brand; however, you can use any brand recommended by Rotimatic.

    Spices: The powdered spices I use are garam masala, chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, and amchur.

    Salt: Use ½ tsp salt along with spices.

    Step-by-step instructions

    Combine together flour, salt, and powdered spices and mix them well.

    Transfer the flour mixture to the Rotimatic container and place the container as per Rotimatic instructions.

    Fill water and oil in the Rotimatic containers and place them as per Rotimatic instructions.

    Useful tips

    Rotimatic comes with a list of recommended flours. I have used Aashirwaad atta; however, you may use your preferred brand from their list.

    Make sure the mixing bowl and spatula/spoons used are clean and dry. We do not want any water or moisture in the flour container of Rotimatic.

    It is important to use only dry powdered spices along with the flour. Also, make sure you mix the spices well with the flour. You can also sieve the flour and spices together to ensure it is mixed uniformly.

    My preferred Rotimatic setting is Thickness 2, Roast Level 2, and Oil 2; however, you can use the settings you prefer.

    Do not add more than ½ tsp of salt as more salt can make the dough sticky.

    Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions recommended by Rotimatic.

    I am using 2 cups of flour which is almost the full flour container (of Rotimatic) that makes around 9-10 rotis, before it gives you a message to refill.

    FAQs

    How to pack roti for a lunchbox?

    Place warm rotis on a paper towel and then place them in an aluminum foil. The kitchen towel will help absorb the moisture content. This way, the rotis will remain soft, yet not soggy.

    What spices can I add to masala roti?

    The most common spices used in masala roti are coriander powder, garam masala, and amchur. You can add other spices as per your preference.
