The world of Indian breads is wondrous. With a few basic ingredients and a tava it is amazing to see how many varieties of rotis and parathas can be made by slightly altering the ingredients or proportions, or using a stuffing.
Milk Roti or Dudh ki Roti is one such variant of roti. Though it is very easy to make, its soft texture and the pleasant flavour of milk and ghee make it a favourite with young and old alike!
Serve it with a spicy vegetable preparation, to make a homely yet special meal.
