- potato rotis |Indian potato roti | aloo roti | potato roti made with plain flours is the recipe given below. Roti is a popular Indian flatbread eaten with subzi, curries and gravies for lunch or dinner. While mostly it is made with whole wheat flour and salt, you can use a number of flour and spices to make variation. Also, you can add in some chopped vegetables to give it a nice mouthfeel and flavour. The addition of paneer or oats also helps in making it more wholesome. Here are some popular roti recipes from our website which I personally like :

A good alternative to stuffed aloo parathas for a quick breakfast or a one-dish meal. The parathas were soft, next time will have them with some dal.
