- In a bowl, pour warm milk.
- Sprinkle yeast over the milk’s surface evenly.
- Allow it to rest for approximately 20 minutes, letting the yeast activate and create a frothy layer.
Prepare Dough:
- In a separate large bowl, sift wheat flour and add salt.
- Incorporate anise seed powder into the flour mixture.
- Pour in the activated yeast mixture and combine thoroughly.
- Gradually add water as needed to form a soft, pliable dough.
Proofing the Dough:
- Once the dough is well-kneaded, cover it and let it rest in a warm place for about 2 hours, allowing it to rise and develop its flavors.
Shape the Rotis:
- After proofing, knead the dough once again to release any trapped air bubbles.
- Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and shape them into smooth balls.
- Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a round shape, approximately 5″ to 6″ in diameter.
Cooking:
- Heat a griddle or tawa over medium heat until hot.
- Place a rolled roti onto the hot griddle and cook until light brown spots start to appear on the bottom surface.
- Flip the roti and cook the other side until light brown spots appear as well.
- Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls, cooking each roti individually.
Finishing Touch:
- Once cooked, remove the rotis from the griddle and immediately smear a generous amount of ghee on each hot roti.
- This step enhances the flavor and adds a rich, buttery taste to the Mughlai Rotis.
Serving:
- Serve these aromatic and flavorful Mughlai Rotis hot, paired with your favorite curry or accompaniment.
- Enjoy the delicious blend of spices and the soft, fluffy texture of these homemade rotis with family and friends.
