Preparation :- Take wheat flour in a bowl as much as u need

To this add salt and mix it . Next add little amount of water and mix . Next add 2 -3 tbspns of curd . Mix well. ( Adding curd will give extra softness to rotis , if u dont have curd u can add milk )

Remaining add water and make as dough , dont make like usual dough . Rotis on roti maker always needs little more water than usual . Ur dough should be little loose in such a way that if u try rolling it will stick , that much loose it requires . Finally add 1 tspn oil and make as dough . For this u dont need to knead it till ur muscles are out . Just simply make dough and put aside . Cover it with lid or cloth .

Put ur dough aside for 1 hr .

After 1 hr switch ON ur roti maker . Before switching ON open the lid of roti maker then u can ON the switch . A red bulb will be on . u can start doing rotis once that bulb is off . It takes nearly 5-10 mins . In this mean time u can do balls . If u r doing in large quantities then first make balls and after finshing only ON roti maker.

In mean time take 1 drop of oil and smear it to ur hands . Now take a small ball size dough and make as balls and press them flat . Next for making 2nd ball again smear 1 drop of oil to ur hands and repeat doing balls . smearing oil to hands ensures u from sticking . Since dough will be loose it will stick. Dont do big size balls .

By the time u finish doing balls red light will get off . It ensures that rotimaker is ready to do rotis . I mean it has got sufficient heat .

Now take 1 ball , make it little flat with hands and put it near to the lid . Do not put it at the center . Just see my pic for better understanding.

After 2 mins of opening the lid u will see small small bubbles coming (bubbles should be like little lessthan in my pic) , after 1 min just reverse the roti (use either wooden spatula or nonstick spatula , dont use steel).

Now hold the lid on top where u get plastic body and slowly try to close the lid till 3/4 th not completely and hold for few secs and open again. This will give good heating . Turn the direction of roti (not reversing ) and again close the lid 3/4th. Open immediately after 1/2 min. By this time u will see ur fluffy roti coming out

.Take that roti out and serve hot with any dish.

My explanation may be too lengthy but if u do regularly u will not feel it as a big work . I am sure if u do regularly u will get soft and fluffy rotis and u will feel how easy to do rotis , no hard kneading , no rolling , no need to stand before hot stove . u can make 1 roti in 1 minute .

when we were in chennai i felt doing rotis manually is a difficult task in hot weather where i used to get full sweat by the time i complete doing rotis on stove . At that time i preffered buying rotimaker . Really i thank my rotimaker which served us soft rotis daily with no difficulty. Disadvantages of roti maker :- Roti maker has disadvantages also . U cant eat rotis after 2-3 hrs of doing rotis . They will turn hard . So u should consume immediately when they r hot or lessthan an hour of doing rotis . Next disadvantage is if u have extra dough u cant store it in freeze and do it next day . It wont come out fluffy and soft . So , u should mix exact flour as u need .
