roti or chapathi is one such dish we make it often but never get bored. but these are basic flatbreads and whenever we wish to eat some fancy bread, we go to our favourite indian restaurants. we all assume, that naan and tandoori roti can only be made in restaurants and hotels using fancy and sophisticated tools and equipment. well, let me tell you, all those recipes can be made easily at home if you have will and patience. for instance, in this recipe post, i am attempting the most popular tandoori roti recipe on tawa. trust me the critical part for this recipe is not baking or frying the roti, but kneading the dough. it has to be smooth, soft with balanced ingredients in it. with those proper measurements and ingredients, it would stick to tawa to make a perfect restaurant-style butter tandoori roti.

furthermore, i would also like to mention some of my tips, suggestions and variations to tandoori roti recipe on tawa. firstly, this recipe is made with only wheat flour as traditionally tandoori roti is made with just that. however, if you wish to explore other options, you may also use plain flour along with wheat flour. you may use 1:1 or 3:1 or 4:1 ratio, to begin with. secondly, i have used iron tawa with roti stuck to the base of it. you may also use your old pressure cooker and stick the roti to the sides of it. lastly, once the roti’s are cooked or baked, apply butter on top of it, so that it does not become brittle. do not apply before cooking or while it is cooked.
