Tandoori Roti

Tandoori Roti without aTandoor

Tandoori Roti  is traditionally made in a tandoor with whole wheat flour. It is a staple of Punjabi cuisine.  Now a days we do not generally have  traditional tandoor at home, but still we can make this roti on a gas top. I have made this roti on an inverted wok or a Kadai. Try this method and you will not be disappointed.

Tandoori roti becomes even more popular because we think of it as something not easily made at home; how many of us actually have Tandoors‘ at home ? You could easily make Tandoori Rotis at home, and no, you don’t have to invest in a tandoor. Follow our Video below and step-by-step process to make Tandoori Roti’s without a Tandoor.
