About

Maida Roti is a type of flatbread popular in India. It is made from all-purpose flour (maida) and water, and is usually served with curries or used as a wrap. The dough is kneaded and rolled out into thin circles before being cooked on a hot griddle. The roti is cooked until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside, and soft and fluffy on the inside.
