Ingredients

1 Cup whole wheat flour
1/4 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup milk
Few strands of saffron
2 Tsp cardamom powder (elaichi powder)
Oil or ghee for cooking

Instructions

First of all, measure all ingredients and combine in a mixing bowl.
Make a soft dough using milk, add gradually a little quantity at a time.
Divide the dough into equal portions. I made 8 pieces with this quantity.
Roll in 3-4″ circle carefully. Sugar starts melting while rolling down. So dust it or use oil while rolling. You can use palms to flatten them as well.
Heat a griddle on medium flame. Place the rolled roti on the griddle.
In few seconds flip it on another side. Apply ghee or oil both sides and cook until golden in color.
Elaichi roti or cardamom flavored Indian flatbread is ready to serve. This taste best when completely at room temperature.

Notes

Add milk gradually, otherwise, the dough will be watery. Sugar start melting if a liquid is more.
Serve them at room temperature.
