In English, "roti" is called "flatbread". Roti is a round flatbread that is native to the Indian subcontinent and is commonly consumed in many South Asian countries. It is made from wheat flour and is cooked on a flat or slightly concave iron griddle called a tawa. Roti is often eaten with cooked vegetables or curries and can be used as a carrier for them. It is a staple of Indian cuisine, especially in the north, and is made with only two ingredients - atta (the wheat flour) and water. Roti is known by different names in different parts of the country and sometimes theres also a difference in the way you cook it.
