This is yet another very simple roti to make.I made some dhal today and thought of doing some different kind of roti.Everytime we do potato stuffed paratha.I wanted to do something different.I was browsing through Mallika Badrinath's book and found this Roti.

Recipe Source:Mallika Badrinath
2 cups Maida flour(All purpose flour)
1 potato (boiled and mashed)
salt to taste
1 tea spoon Jeera (cumin seeds)
1 tea spoon sugar
1/4 cup warm milk
1 tea spoon melted ghee/butter
Method:
In a vessel mix the ghee,salt,sugar and Jeera with the mashed potato
Mix the flour along with the potato mixture and slowly add the milk to form a thick and soft dough.
Add more milk if required.
Roll out into round chapathi's and place it on hot tava.
Flip the sides until done(brown spots appear).
Serve hot with any spicy side dish.
