Padvali Roti, Gujarati Thin Rotli Recipe

Padvali Roti is a traditional Gujarati roti, which is prepared frequently during the mango season to enjoy with aam ka ras. Although these thin Guajrati rotlis are prepared using just whole wheat flour, like any other roti, the method of rolling and cooking the Padvali Roti in pairs makes them quite different from other varieties like phulkas .




The thin Padvali Rotis are cooked only on a tava and not on an open flame. A pair of the rotis are layered for rolling and cooking, in order to make thin rotis that can be cooked perfectly without crisping them or burning them too much. Follow the instructions as given to enjoy perfect Padvali Rotis, and make sure you serve some aam ras with them!


Enjoy a typical Gujarati meal of Padvali Rotis and Aam Ras along with Karela Bateta Nu Shaak , Batata Chips Nu Shaak , Fajeto and rice .

Hi tarla mam, my husband is very fond of cooking he tried the padvali roti as instructed by you and believe me it turned out so soft that we had 5 rotis each.We are south indians but wanted to have roti so we went through all the roti recipes and tried padvali roti. Amazingly soft roti even though the making process is time consuming. We enjoyed and will try all your different rotis and subzis. Thanks and Regards, Jayashree Ganesh, chennai
