Classic Tawa Roti
Let's start with the heart of Indian flatbreads – the tawa roti! This simple yet satisfying bread uses just a few ingredients: whole wheat flour, water,
and a touch of salt. It's the perfect accompaniment to any sabzi or dal. Remember to lightly brush it with ghee for that authentic taste and that soft texture.
The Humble Paratha
Next up, the beloved paratha! This layered flatbread is a breakfast favorite and a versatile lunch option. Whether it's the classic aloo paratha, stuffed with spiced potatoes, or a simple plain paratha, it’s a treat! Try different fillings like paneer or even mixed vegetables for a richer flavor. Don't forget the dollop of curd!
Flavorful Naan Magic
Let's bring in some naan-tastic magic. Naan, with its soft, chewy texture and slightly charred exterior, is a restaurant favorite. Traditionally cooked in a tandoor, you can easily replicate the flavors at home. Use a hot skillet or even your oven for a similar effect. It pairs perfectly with butter chicken or any rich curry.
