  2. 1 tsp ghee
  3. 1 tsp oil
  4. 1/2 tsp salt

Cooking steps for Oats Roti

  1. 1
    First things first, grab 2 cups of instant oats and toss them in a blender.
  2. 2
    Blitz them into a fine, flour-like texture because we're about to make something magical happen.
  3. 3
    Once you've got that smooth oat flour, transfer it into a big mixing bowl and season it with a pinch of salt.
  4. 4
    Mix it up so everything is evenly distributed—nothing fancy, just a quick stir.
  5. 5
    Now comes the fun part: slowly pour in 1 cup of hot water.
  6. 6
    Yep, hot water is the secret sauce here because oats are gluten-free, and this helps them come together beautifully.
  7. 7
    Add it bit by bit, mixing as you go.
  8. 8
    Use the back of a spoon or your hands—just let it cool a bit if you're going hands-on.
  9. 9
    Once it starts to feel like dough, throw in a teaspoon of ghee for that extra softness and a touch of richness.
  10. 10
    Knead it into a nice, smooth dough, then let it chill for 5-10 minutes.
  11. 11
    This downtime makes the dough way easier to handle.
  12. 12
    Divide the rested dough into lemon-sized balls—it's time to roll!
  13. 13
    Dust your surface with a little oat flour to prevent sticking.
  14. 14
    Take one dough ball and roll it out as thin as you can.
  15. 15
    Pro tip: If it's cracking around the edges (oats don't have gluten, so it happens), use a lid to trim the rolled dough into a perfect circle.
  16. 16
    Waste not, want not—just reuse the scraps for the next one.
  17. 17
    Heat up your cast-iron tawa or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  18. 18
    When it's nice and hot, slap a rolled-out roti on there.
  19. 19
    Let it cook for a few seconds until you see bubbles forming on the surface.
  20. 20
    Flip it, brush on a little ghee or oil, and keep flipping and pressing it gently with a spatula until both sides are golden brown and slightly charred in spots.
  21. 21
    That's when you know it's done.
  22. 22
    Repeat with the rest of your dough balls.
  23. 23
    And boom—your oats rotis are ready to go!
  24. 24
    They're soft, slightly nutty, and pair perfectly with pretty much anything—tangy tomato chutney, creamy yogurt dips, or a spicy curry if you're feeling extra.

FAQs

What is Oats Roti, and how is it unique?

Oats roti is the healthy version of the Indian roti; oats are added to the dough and combined with whole wheat flour. Ground oats or oat flour mixed with flour add fibre and protein with essential nutrients. Regular roti is usually made with whole wheat flour, whereas the texture is lighter and has a nutty flavour in oats roti. It's an excellent option for people looking to increase their fibre intake or for those who are gluten sensitive.

How do I make the dough for Oats Roti soft and pliable?

A very smooth and pliable oats roti requires a combination of whole wheat flour and oat flour in the right proportion. Usually, a 2:1 ratio of wheat flour to oats flour is better. Now, knead the dough with warm water. Pour it in gradually so that the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Adding a small amount of oil or ghee while kneading may keep the rotis soft. Roll it out, and let it rest for 15-20 minutes; that helps in making it much more pliable and more accessible to cook.

Can Oats Roti be prepared ahead of time?

Allow the rotis to cool down completely, pack them in an airtight container, and store them at room temperature for up to 1 day. If you would like to store them longer than this, you may always enclose them in foil or parchment paper and refrigerate them for up to 3 days. Reheating: Place them on a tawa or skillet for a few seconds on either side and to regain softness, microwave for a few seconds.
