--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1                cup  whole wheat flour
    1           teaspoon  oil
       1/2           cup  water

Indian classic Bread.

Mix oil with flour, adding a little bit of water gradually making a 
soft dough. Knead for 2 minutes. Divide into 10 even size balls.

On a lightly floured surface roll out balls into circles, 
approximately 5" in diameter.

Heat a skillet to medium heat, and when hot, put roti on it. Let it 
cook until an air bubble appears. Turn it over and cook other side 
until brown spots appear. Turn roti over, and momentarily place on an 
open flame. When roti puffs up like a ball, take if off the flame. 
Spread with ghee and serve warm.
