Simple Wheat Rotti is an easy rotti and we do not add any thing except salt and water. It can be eaten with any curry or chutney, saambar. We can have them as diet food too. (You can prepare them without oil too). It is very good for dinner and digest easily. I have seen my mother preparing this very often.

Lets see some benefits of Wheat flour.

Method :

1. Put wheat flour and salt in a big bowl.
2. Add required water and mix it. Let it be thicker than dosa dough. ( Not very thick too).
3. Mix it nicely and leave it for 5 minutes.
4. Keep a pan on the fire and heat. Sprinkle oil.

You can add milk (1/2 cup), or a spoon of curd. ( I did not). Adding less or more oil is optional. It is one of the good diet food. Keeps you full for a long time. (use less oil if dieting). Adjust the flame of fire while cooking to get the good rotti. (medium to low).
