Prepare the Dough
- In a mixing bowl add flour, oil and salt and mix. Now using water/milk knead everything to a soft dough.

- On a dusted board roll out each portion into a thin chapatti.
- Heat a griddle/tawa and lightly cook chapatti on both sides. Grease with a very little oil on both sides. Chapattis are ready to make roll.
- Alternatively, if you are planning to make chapattis beforehand and serve later, skip the greasing part. Cover the chapattis with damp cloth the and keep aside.
- Don’t cook the chapatti completely otherwise while assembling the wrap they will get very crisp and dry.
Assembling & Serving the Kathi Roll
