Ingredients and Method to make Potato Roti
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (atta/ godumai maavu)
1/2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
salt to taste
2 small potatoes cooked until soft, peeled and mashed
4 Thai or green chilies cut fine
2 tbsp finely cut cilantro
water as needed
a little oil or clarified butter to apply on the cooked rotis (optional, use oil for a vegan version)
a little extra flour for dusting
In a large bowl mix together all the ingredients except water and cooked potatoes. Add mashed potatoes and mix into the flour.
Add water as required to knead into a soft and non sticky dough. This does not require much water since potatoes contribute some moisture too.
Divide the dough into equal lemon sized balls. With the help of a little extra flour, roll out dough into an even circle of even thickness of choice. Heat a flat pan/ griddle/ tawa on medium heat. Place rolled out dough on the heated pan.

Cook for a little time, then flip over and cook the other side until it gets light golden brown spots. Apply oil or clarified butter if using on the side facing upwards and flip over, cook just a few seconds.
Remove and serve hot with dhal/ curry of choice. Proceed with the rest of the dough in the same manner.
