  • Prepare the Fenugreek Leaves:
    • Soak the dried fenugreek leaves in warm water for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain and squeeze out any excess liquid.
  • Make the Dough:
    • Sift the flours and baking soda into a medium-sized bowl using a small strainer.
    • Stir in the salt, chili powder, cayenne, cumin, coriander, ajwain seeds, asafetida, yogurt, and the soaked fenugreek leaves.
    • Gradually add about 1/4 cup of water to form a semi-hard dough. Mix well.
    • Cover the dough and let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour to rest.
  • Shape the Roti:
    • After the dough has rested, dust your hands with flour and divide the dough into 10 to 12 small balls.
    • Roll each ball into a 3-inch circle, making sure the dough is even.
  • Cook the Roti:
    • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly brush with ghee or oil.
    • Once the pan is hot, place a rolled-out portion of the dough onto the pan and cook for 4 minutes or until the bottom is browned.
    • Sprinkle a little oil on top, flip the roti, and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
  • Serve:
    • Transfer each cooked roti to a plate and keep warm in a 150°F oven while you cook the rest of the rotis.
    • Serve hot and enjoy with your favorite curry or side dish!
