Wheat Gluten Tava Roti

#Bread   #Indian  

Table of Content

While the traditional wheat flour roti is not an option with low carb / keto diet it is possible to get closer to the taste using Soya flour. The Tava Roti recipe is fine but feels a bit brittle. This recipe is great though as I felt it was almost like the real deal.

Danger

As this recipe is based mainly on wheat gluten, it is not suitable for those with Gluten Intolerance. I am sure it's obvious but still.
