Cambodian Roti Recipe

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Rolling Pin
  • Large, non-stick pan
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • Additional oil for brushing the roti

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
  • Add in the oil and mix until the flour resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Gradually add in the warm water and mix until a soft dough forms.
  • Knead the dough for about 5 minutes on a lightly floured surface until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
  • On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to flatten each ball into a thin, round disc. Heat a large, non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • 8. Brush the roti with oil and place it in the pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
  • 9. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Notes

Tips and Tricks

 
Make sure to use warm water when making the dough. This will help the dough to be soft and pliable.
Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will allow the gluten to relax, making it easier to roll out.
When rolling out the roti, make sure to use enough flour to prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin or work surface.
To achieve a crispy texture, cook the roti over medium heat until both sides are golden brown.
