Hey ur tips really helped a lot I'm 15yrs n a beginner ihve tried learning making roti many times but made it very tough, today i used ur technique n it really worked thankyou so much 🌠
Too late, this should be a surviving basic for all people since childhood, @@findx2744. I appreciate the guy cooking at 15 though, I reminds of myself at his/her age. I was mostly doing same, well done!
Lady. You have a voice that can soothe the soul. I would fall asleep listening to you narrate anything. Your voice could end wars and create world peace. So warm, soft and gentle. Filled with love, patience and purity! Your chapatis look amazing thanks for the tips
I was thinking the same thing. I want her to read me bedtime stories. I don't care that I'm an adult. The techniques and apps I've used to help me get to sleep don't help. Let's petition for an app to be made. It should be called 'Bedtime stories with Bumbi' 😂❤
I agree. It was like a story telling at bedtime. Half asleep. But she can end the war between Ukraine and Russia in 20 minutes, just teaching them how they can chapatis. War gone for the toss and both of them sit together and eat chapatis. Dosti badegi.
The tips are great as I have not come across so much clear details. have made this Roti several times but could never get it soft as it was always hard or crispy.
People in the USA have been waiting for decades for someone to give them this type of detailed instruction. Some things you just can't do from a cookbook, however fine, alone. We have to SEE it being done. Bumbi takes a lot of the tension out of making Indian-style breads, with her gentle, patient style of instruction. Thank you, Bumbi!!
made a batch in a food processor, distractedly cooked 3 breads (while I was also cooking something else), which sat for a good half hour under paper, and then ate them; they were extremely soft and foldable. This is a winner.
Thank you so much for the best Roti tuition video I've ever seen on YT. I've been making Roti for 20 years and I'm still learning. I only eat them now and then, so I need to keep practising! I am a vegetarian and I love Indian veg food. I've made Dal for my dinner with a couple of Phulka. I'm 70 percent there, so I'll keep watching your video and I'll get there. I actually enjoy making them, but when they haven't puffed up, I've been disappointed :(.There's so many steps.. correct amount of water, rolling evenly, tawa hot but not too hot.. Thank you for a most excellent video :) Shaun, Nottingham, UK
It’s true that making roti gets better and better with practice but not all rotis puff up so don’t be disappointed if you don’t see all of them puffing up. They will still taste good. It’s always nice to know that I am providing useful content. Thanks a lot for your kind words and for your lovely feedback. Really appreciate it. Keep making rotis and soon you will be very satisfied with the results.
I tried making rotis yesterday and ended up with chips. After watching your video this morning, I decided to try again and they came out soft and delicious!! Thank you for the help!!
I have been these for years but I did not succeed. Thank you for sharing this receipe how to prepare roti and also guiding us by telling not to get disappointed if the roti does not puff up because a lot of practice is needed. God bless you .
My deep appreciation to all roti makers! It's such a labour- intensive work! And,if at home, to prepare enough for a large family, it would hours of work over a hot tawa! Much love for them...I mean..the roti- makers!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just made Roti for the first time tonight. I did not get the visual results I hoped for, but it was still very delicious. It went very well with my butter chicken.
Thank you so much for showing us from all your tears of practice! I did exactly what you said and they were so soft and puffed up! This has to be the best tutorial I have found. You are incredibly encouraging! Thank you so much!
Wow! You definitely have a knack for teaching, Bumbi. Your explanation is very helpful for those of us who needs an elaborate detail. Well done, well done. Your patience is admirable.
Made rotis probably the 3rd or 4th time ever in my life. Dont do a lot of cooking so need to follow detailed recipes. Followed this today and rotis turned out amazing!!! All of the rotis puffed up, some more than others. Most had a great shape except for the last 2. Dough was not sticky at all, rolling was easy and fun. Ty for such an amazing instructional video
Couldnt have done or shown it any better. Cuzzz after successfully spoiling roti for more times countable, i finally made them perfect today! Thanks a bunch!!
i made some chapatis today using your method they were the best ive made so far soft and fluffy and i managed to keep them fairly round to ..let me thank you again for an amazing video
Best thing about this tutorial was that we were reminded of the fact that it took years to get to perfection and went through lot of failures. One of the things that intimidate me while watching other videos was them creating a perfect roti with so ease.
Your gentle way of explaining & encouraging is very reassuring for beginners!! I'm always looking for tips to make softER chapatis. Speaking from experience, YES, it does need a lot of practice, and after some time the improvement comes naturally but is very satisfying. I too use Ex.Vir. Olive oil - A healthy choice (VERY good for health) As a wellness coach, I discourage anything unhealthy that I see on videos, and this one definitely gets a Thumbs UP from me. You have what it takes to be successful online - Keep up the Good work!! Namaste from USA!!
Bumbi my friend, I love 🫓 Chapattis & have always been disappointed when they came out tough when I made them. Thank you so much for your experience & attention to detail. A true teacher Bumbi 🙏 from Worthing by the Sea in the UK
Thankyou Bumbi, I have been trying to make chapati puff for 5 years. I made so many with different recipes and directions, and only had a few bubble slightly. I can even do circular rolling but no puff for a layered chapati. So I was going to try again following your video. 6 out of 8 puffed! It was like magic! I think my problem was too hot tawa or overcooking the first couple of flips. But thank you this was a big help, the best chapati video!
My whole life litteraly depends on this 12min roti making class hopefully my future mother in law sees my efforts 😂 I really appreacite your time and tips ❤
Practice makes it better and better, so if you want to impress your future mother in law then start from now 😀. Your mother in law will surely understand your efforts. All the best to you and thanks for leaving a comment 🙏🏾
yes, if you WILL you will be expert in making rotis and believe me, you would not like to eat ready made roties available in Indian store! Home made roties are far better.
Dear Curries with Mumbi, Thank you. I came to your video as I was out of practice with making Roti, Paratha, and the Breads in the Style of India. "I am learning the Hindi language and other languages I'm sorry if I offend but doing my best, I will not try to speak". I did at one point engage or help in the process, and did my best. Your video engaged me. I cannot claim to be any expert on the Indian cuisine, or bread, unfortunately. But my background is I am interested in cuisine, local and of the world, and in my University days I had the GREAT fortune of getting to know and live with some Indian guys. I am Irish! Those guys were all international students, amazing Indian people who have all gone on to great things. And I tried my best to help them in the preparation of meals. And they too, they helped me prepare many Traditional Irish dishes. I love your style of cooking and I realised at the end of your video this has been 20 years in the making! I was going to ask you Curries with Mumbi how you don't get the Roti's coming out hard and flat like Tortillas!! Then I knew my kind oh so kind Indian friends gave me the easy job of when the dough was rolled and the work was done I could tend it over the pan! Gas works so well (we had gas), and I relate to you saying adjust the temperature. That is not so possible or delayed with electric hobs. I also realised from your video some of my flaws. I used too little flour when dusting and such a great tip you said to flip between palms to remove the flour. Thank you so much. And as a Mathematics graduate and Computer Science Masters Graduate, अरे बाप रे!!lol I am so not feeling so bad about the circle being an ellipse! I suppose, Curries With Bumbi, I shouldn't feel so bad about it. But, then, having thought about it, I suppose, because I cant make perfect Roti that is ok. I can make the bread. In an Irish way. and we are very much based on potato diet so lots of our bread incorporates potato. And bread too. But to be fair the skill level in your making of bread is far higher. I know it is not a competition. But I absolutely LOVED your video and subscribed! I love your wisdom and experience. And I can see how the main meal, be it in India, in Dublin, New York, London, anywhere in the world, is so important. I thin you have "nailed it", as in it takes a lot of work (My Brother is an accountant Curries with Mumbi, yet he loves making bread. Honestly. He worked for the Bank of England, in London, he moved with his wife to Yorkshire, in North England. But he is so into the BREAD!!! He has a dough making machine, he makes his kids help, etc lol. He has even sold loaves at the local fair Curries with Mumbi, But.....He can't make Roti either!!! I am so sorry I am just realising what a long and too long this message was. I apologise, and obviusly no need to reply. I just liked your video and although Irish I have a strong Indian friend history and felt a need to connect, isn't that what the internet is about?! Your skills amaze me!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow. I have been making rotis with my dad for years and i was looking for a video to teach my sister with. When she came across yours, she got her first puffed roti. Fantastic job. It was so detailed and you are such a talented person. God bless. Greetings from Lucknow!
Thank you so much for the encouraging words in this video. Started making rotis and 15 days into it, started feeling and I wont be able to make peefect rotis ever! On cannot always find the encouragement they need at home. Also those beginner tips are very helpful. Also, thank you telling that it took 20 years of practice. It gave me hope😌
I was looking for chapati making recipe and stumbled upon your video. Not for a second, I skipped through your video. Your making and voice is amazing. Especially the way you explain the process is fantabulous. Thanks for your soothing words on how to roll chapatis :)
“This is not a geometry class 📐” HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!! THANK YOU for normalizing it for beginners like me! I just can’t get a perfect round shape... 😬 (I’ll try your technique now). Thank you for posting yet another great video with your humor too! 💗
and I have seen many youtubers using round lid of a steel container and put it on a uneven shaped rolled out roti to look it round and all are of same shape once they are cooked on tawa. yes, easy short cut, but making such a round shape while rolling has its oen charm. While I was in school, I had heard my grand ma telling us that when you prepare daugh of roti, one should be so efficient to collect all stick particles in the bowl and one can not make out you prepare dough in that vessel. Also chapaties should be of same thickness each one and all of them. I value her correcting us kids at that time!
Thank you. Your video is very encouraging not only to the starters but to all who rotisserie don't puff up. I have been making roti/ chapati for 50+ years but now I have an electric stove. Sometimes they puff, sometimes not. I' II try your method . You have a soft encouraging voice.
I have been trying to make round and soft rotis, but it was a failure. Now I have the idea. Thanks for sharing the video. If possible, can you upload how to make Jawari rotis.
This is the 1st video I have viewed for chapati and I don't think i will watch any other. Such a well explained video with a soothing background voice.
Seriously , I am writing down a coment to uh just because of ur softness n kindness that how beautifully uh explained each n every step 🎉❤ n ur motivation made me more hopeful😊😊😊 may Allah bless uh
I’ve never mastered the art of making soft and round roties. My roties are soft on the day of preparing, but they get hard the next day. Hopefully I’ll get better with this video. Thank you for your very patient instructions.
Rotis do tend to get little hard when left overnight. Next day just brush very lightly with some water on both sides and microwave them. They get soft again.
Roti making or not but the voice is giving something else. I mean energy for cooking. If your voice is this much soft how about your heart. Normally my daughter doesnt like cooking video but my daughter and son both started watching your video. Thanks love you❤
Thank you for such an easy to understand & follow demonstration for making roti. I thought I had some leftover rice to eat with my leftover Dahl but no 🥲 So decided to look up a recipe for roti and found your video. I am going to make some right now. You have a love,y, kind and gentle voice.
This has been the best recipe descrption on how to make soft chapatis, lovely soft friendly voice. The tips have helped me finally make edible chapatis. Thank you for you patience in teaching us beginners. Must look at your other recipes
I have to say, You are exceptional at teaching cooking skills. I new to the channel and I am thoroughly enjoying your channel. I am learning SO much. Thank you for all the care and time you put into sharing Indian Cooking with us all.
Chapati a very satisfying food to make as it gives you a great measure of how much you can improve in the kitchen with practice. I've found that with Chapati getting impatient causes the end result to be less satisfying, especially because the heating on my stove is challenging to perfect. But when you make soft and tasty chapati there is no more satisfying feeling (even if they don't puff up all the time).
Bumbi you made this for me, I just know it. Of course, I needed this two years ago when you published it, but I just found this gem now. I’m not good at making roti, chapati, naan, paratha, you name the flatbread and I mess it up every single time. They taste perfectly fine, but they are too thick, weirdly shaped and just not up to my standards. So thank you, you addressed some of my mistakes here, so I’m making some soon to see if I can apply what I learned from you. Good bread is so amazing!! I don’t know how people go on low carb diets and cut all bread out of their meals. I wouldn’t last a day.
Such an encouraging video! I LOVE chapatis, and I’ve attempted making them before, but I just used a recipe and didn’t research the method. These look amazing, and I’m looking forward to trying again! Thank you ♥️
Your cooking skills are evident with the ease that you display as you’re rolling these out in the more difficult way. They were perfectly round, perfectly prepared and I know they tasted perfectly as well. Watching you cook and listening to your voice is such a pleasure. Thank you!
I have tried numerous recipes...this one works. I particularly like the advice in the video. Iv found myself going more to traditional home curry cooks more than the BIR specialists on UA-cam as you are doing this cooking every day and the methods and recipes often passed through generations.... Thanks Bumbi
Hi m 35nd m learning to make rotis , Cheer up for me guysss!! I have been criticized tht i dnt knw roti i realized whn m my helper was on leave for a month Bahot bhaari pada muje Bt ab mai ab sikh rahi hu Alhmdulillah🎉
VRRY SOFTLY SPOKEN VOICE ZND DEMONSTRATED IN A PROFESSIONAL PROFESSIONAL WAY THANK YOU.I GET VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY TOTIS AS THEY COME OUT VERY CRISPY..IT JUST DADENS ME.
Thank you so much for making this video. I love how detailed it is and that it is very beginner friendly. I'm sure it will help me a lot. I am a Filipina, and I wanted to make roti and chapati for my Indian boyfriend. I feel that this will be my go-to channel on my journey to learning Indian cuisine. 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you Bumbi, I'm at home in my kitchen in New Zealand making this. I love your humor and lovely voice. I was writing down what ingredients you were saying. I wrote 1 half cups of butter, I think that can't be & listening again you were saying Atta😂 silly me, anyway I've been searching for a teaching like this in English for ages. I'm lucky I found you. You are fantastic & I'm feeling proud. Thank you Bumbi 🙏🏻💖
Haha 😀. Just to let you know that the ingredient proportions are given in the description box below the video. Please click on “more” situated below the title of the video to open up the description box
@@cosmapereira3116 I appreciate your comments on this channel but please do not leave comments for watching other channels on my viewers comments. We all can browse the internet and choose which one is good and useful for us. Thank You
Amazing! Unfortunately the temp of my electric hobs are too unpredictable but I'm still happy with the result! Huge difference from last nights 'tortilla' to todays soft Roti. Thank you 🙏
@@CurriesWithBumbi please keep posting ❤️. Do you have Some breakfast dishes?. I love indian food, i cook them quit often but chapati with atta has always been a challenge. What part of India are you from if you dont mind me asking?
I recently found your channel and it has helped me so much! I love your methods, adore your humor and really admire your humility. You are fantastic and I appreciate you sharing what is obviously decades of experience! Simple and delicious!!
I am making chapaties for more than 55 years or more and as you said practice makes it easier. For me making 50 chapaties is very easy task but now being just 2 of us have to make 3-4 chapaties for lunch or dinner. Haah, that is difficult! Isn't it? But I do enjoy cooking fresh chapaties everyday. You have explained the whole procedure with lot of patience and all useful tips for beginners. I am sure my granddaughters when they will start cooking for themselves, they will search on the youtube how to make roti like mom and dadi made! 😀 and they will find your video very useful. Now a days girls are too much busy with school home work and other school activities that helping mom in the kitchen comes to last priority. Don't blame them at all, the time has changed. But one thing is positive that if they need to and want to cook, lots of videos are there for them to learn cook. Thanks for the video.
I have seen so many videos.. But your way of telling the receive is something different.. It gives me courage to do even after I give fail attempts.. It's gives me positive view to understand that it perfectly even if u fail to make it, u r just beginner.. U should not compare with ur in law even when they do.. Be positive and patience and try.. One day u will succeed.. U will gain that experience.. ❤
Excellent explanation. I followed the recipe and my roties came out soft and remained soft the next day as well. Thank you so much for the wonderful recipe.
Nice tip n trick I try to make these rotis so hard but doesn't get that consistency or perfection but thank u you give such teach such a perfect n easy method
Thanks a lot for the well spoken and the detailed explanation using the right tone where required. you reminded me of one of my class teacher. I knew that bengolis are well educated and well spoken people and you have once again proved it. Thanks again for helping me out as I' am a beginner and this video of yours has definately helped me out to understand about the right technique to do a perfect roti and also motivating all of us that failure is key to success.
Patience and soft spoken I must congratulate you Ma'am. You have explained in such a simple and beautiful way. God bless your dedication and concern to learners 🙌 😊🦋Thank you🙏
Excellent video. First try, made my dough a little too wet, it was too sticky. Did not puff up like yours. Need to work at it. Excellent video, thank you.
Hey ur tips really helped a lot I'm 15yrs n a beginner ihve tried learning making roti many times but made it very tough, today i used ur technique n it really worked thankyou so much 🌠
I am so very happy to hear that. You made my day dear !! I am glad this video helped you. Thanks for your feedback.
15 ???
that's quite early
Ain't it
@@CurriesWithBumbi This is by far the best-explained video on roti / chapati after more than 40 I watched. Must love it
Too late, this should be a surviving basic for all people since childhood, @@findx2744. I appreciate the guy cooking at 15 though, I reminds of myself at his/her age. I was mostly doing same, well done!
Same like gaurikasrisushma I too tried for almost now 25 yrs I could not knead well but after seeing ur video I have picked up very fast .Thank u

I am so very happy to hear that your sister could puff up the rotis. All credit goes to her. Thanks for your kind words.
Thank you so much for the encouraging words in this video. Started making rotis and 15 days into it, started feeling and I wont be able to make peefect rotis ever! On cannot always find the encouragement they need at home. Also those beginner tips are very helpful. Also, thank you telling that it took 20 years of practice. It gave me hope😌
Practice makes it better
Loved the way you patiently and slowly explained the technique with useful tips . Excellent video instruction 👏👌
Thanks for your kind words
I was looking for chapati making recipe and stumbled upon your video. Not for a second, I skipped through your video. Your making and voice is amazing. Especially the way you explain the process is fantabulous. Thanks for your soothing words on how to roll chapatis :)
“This is not a geometry class 📐” HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!! THANK YOU for normalizing it for beginners like me! I just can’t get a perfect round shape... 😬 (I’ll try your technique now). Thank you for posting yet another great video with your humor too! 💗
Thanks 😀
@@CurriesWithBumbi most welcome. :)
loved that too
and I have seen many youtubers using round lid of a steel container and put it on a uneven shaped rolled out roti to look it round and all are of same shape once they are cooked on tawa. yes, easy short cut, but making such a round shape while rolling has its oen charm. While I was in school, I had heard my grand ma telling us that when you prepare daugh of roti, one should be so efficient to collect all stick particles in the bowl and one can not make out you prepare dough in that vessel. Also chapaties should be of same thickness each one and all of them. I value her correcting us kids at that time!
😂😂😂
Thank you. Your video is very encouraging not only to the starters but to all who rotisserie don't puff up. I have been making roti/ chapati for 50+ years but now I have an electric stove. Sometimes they puff, sometimes not. I' II try your method . You have a soft encouraging voice.
Thanks for leaving a comment. I am glad you found this video useful
Best video on roti making... thank you
I have been trying to make round and soft rotis, but it was a failure. Now I have the idea. Thanks for sharing the video.
If possible, can you upload how to make Jawari rotis.
I made your wonderful cauliflower and potato curry recipe and ordered some atta to make my first roti. Thank you for the tips and guides.
excellent description. extremely controlled english language and i think i will be greatly helped by your tips. thank you
Thank you for the useful tips, what to look out for. Chapati is healthy, delicious and thankfully not too complicated for me to make.
Thank you for making this video. It's very clear and easy to follow. Also, your voice is very pleasant and relaxing.
Not only is this recipe and other recipes delicious looking ( and tasting) food, also your voice and manner is completely soothing. ❤🙏
I am glad you enjoy watching my videos. Thanks for leaving a comment.
This is the 1st video I have viewed for chapati and I don't think i will watch any other. Such a well explained video with a soothing background voice.
Thanks so much
Seriously , I am writing down a coment to uh just because of ur softness n kindness that how beautifully uh explained each n every step 🎉❤ n ur motivation made me more hopeful😊😊😊 may Allah bless uh
Thanks for your kind words
What a lovely video! So gentle and encouraging. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your tips & tricks. Also your encouraging words.❤
I’ve never mastered the art of making soft and round roties. My roties are soft on the day of preparing, but they get hard the next day. Hopefully I’ll get better with this video. Thank you for your very patient instructions.
Rotis do tend to get little hard when left overnight. Next day just brush very lightly with some water on both sides and microwave them. They get soft again.
I made this and now it’s my go to recipe. Thank you so much.❤❤
Wonderful 👍🏽
Roti making or not but the voice is giving something else. I mean energy for cooking. If your voice is this much soft how about your heart. Normally my daughter doesnt like cooking video but my daughter and son both started watching your video. Thanks love you❤
I am glad my videos caught the attention of your children. Thanks for all your love and support. I really appreciate it 🙏🏾
This is an excellent video, so detailed. I have been struggling to get my rotis soft, and this will really help. Thank you.
Glad you found the video useful. Thanks for leaving a comment.
Perfect recipe
My moms away on a trip and I was craving handmade roti, thank you so much!!!
Going to cook roti at the age of 30....ur video was quite satisfying...specially the words of patience & experienced.....
Happy cooking
Thank you for such an easy to understand & follow demonstration for making roti. I thought I had some leftover rice to eat with my leftover Dahl but no 🥲 So decided to look up a recipe for roti and found your video. I am going to make some right now. You have a love,y, kind and gentle voice.
Hope you like it. Happy cooking.
Thank you , one of the best video on making roti
This has been the best recipe descrption on how to make soft chapatis, lovely soft friendly voice. The tips have helped me finally make edible chapatis. Thank you for you patience in teaching us beginners. Must look at your other recipes
I am so happy to hear that. Thank you.
Thank you very much. This is my first time to make chapati. You have explained in detail. I have made the best chapati in the world. Am so happy
I am so happy to hear that. Glad you found the video useful
Thank you for your guidance,I was able to make roti for the first time❤❤❤ I can't express my gratitude,thank u so much 🤗🤗
Great 👍
Thanks for this, will give it a go, bought Chapati flour for the first time.....
I will try this recipe....have listened to this lovely lady before doing curries.
Lovely to listen to softly spoken & well explained. X
Thank you 🙏🏾
I have to say, You are exceptional at teaching cooking skills. I new to the channel and I am thoroughly enjoying your channel. I am learning SO much. Thank you for all the care and time you put into sharing Indian Cooking with us all.
Thanks for all your support 🙏🏾
Chapati a very satisfying food to make as it gives you a great measure of how much you can improve in the kitchen with practice. I've found that with Chapati getting impatient causes the end result to be less satisfying, especially because the heating on my stove is challenging to perfect. But when you make soft and tasty chapati there is no more satisfying feeling (even if they don't puff up all the time).
Totally agree with you
Bumbi you made this for me, I just know it. Of course, I needed this two years ago when you published it, but I just found this gem now.
I’m not good at making roti, chapati, naan, paratha, you name the flatbread and I mess it up every single time. They taste perfectly fine, but they are too thick, weirdly shaped and just not up to my standards. So thank you, you addressed some of my mistakes here, so I’m making some soon to see if I can apply what I learned from you. Good bread is so amazing!! I don’t know how people go on low carb diets and cut all bread out of their meals. I wouldn’t last a day.
You can do it !! Practice makes it better.
Such an encouraging video! I LOVE chapatis, and I’ve attempted making them before, but I just used a recipe and didn’t research the method. These look amazing, and I’m looking forward to trying again! Thank you ♥️
Glad you found the video useful. Thanks for leaving a comment. Please do try it and send me your feedback.
Your cooking skills are evident with the ease that you display as you’re rolling these out in the more difficult way. They were perfectly round, perfectly prepared and I know they tasted perfectly as well. Watching you cook and listening to your voice is such a pleasure. Thank you!
Thanks for your kind words Dianna. Your comments inspire me so much.
@@CurriesWithBumbi and your presence on UA-cam inspires so many of us!
I have tried numerous recipes...this one works. I particularly like the advice in the video. Iv found myself going more to traditional home curry cooks more than the BIR specialists on UA-cam as you are doing this cooking every day and the methods and recipes often passed through generations.... Thanks Bumbi
Hi m 35nd m learning to make rotis ,
Cheer up for me guysss!!
I have been criticized tht i dnt knw roti i realized whn m my helper was on leave for a month
Bahot bhaari pada muje

You surely can do it. With practice it gets better and better
VRRY SOFTLY SPOKEN VOICE ZND DEMONSTRATED IN A PROFESSIONAL PROFESSIONAL WAY THANK YOU.I GET VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY TOTIS AS THEY COME OUT VERY CRISPY..IT JUST DADENS ME.
Just keep on practising. Do not roll them out too thin nor too thick. Roast them on medium heat.
Thank you so much for making this video. I love how detailed it is and that it is very beginner friendly. I'm sure it will help me a lot. I am a Filipina, and I wanted to make roti and chapati for my Indian boyfriend. I feel that this will be my go-to channel on my journey to learning Indian cuisine. 🥰🥰🥰
Welcome 🙏🏾, I am glad you are here
Trying it for the first time. Hope turns out good. Love the way how you explained everything so well. Stay blessed.
as a boy its hard to make roti but this video is blessing for me , Thank you!
Thank you Bumbi, I'm at home in my kitchen in New Zealand making this. I love your humor and lovely voice. I was writing down what ingredients you were saying. I wrote 1 half cups of butter, I think that can't be & listening again you were saying Atta😂 silly me, anyway I've been searching for a teaching like this in English for ages. I'm lucky I found you. You are fantastic & I'm feeling proud. Thank you Bumbi 🙏🏻💖
Haha 😀. Just to let you know that the ingredient proportions are given in the description box below the video. Please click on “more” situated below the title of the video to open up the description box
Another wonderful video. I really learn so much watching them. I’m very serious when it comes to Indian food. 😮
Glad you found the video useful. Thanks.
Wow the simplest version I have seen which actually answers the what ifs, will try making this tonight!
Glad you found the video useful. Thanks for leaving a comment.
Nin Dev you will be shocked just watch Aliza in the kitchen best easy recipe she deserves award for inventing new recipe for new generation.
@@cosmapereira3116 I appreciate your comments on this channel but please do not leave comments for watching other channels on my viewers comments. We all can browse the internet and choose which one is good and useful for us. Thank You
@@CurriesWithBumbi I have deleted the same, sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you, you encourage the beginner like me very well.
Amazing! Unfortunately the temp of my electric hobs are too unpredictable but I'm still happy with the result! Huge difference from last nights 'tortilla' to todays soft Roti. Thank you 🙏
Great 👍🏽
Your sweet voice and throughly spoken words and instructions have helped me accomplish making roti! Gracias! Shukriya! Dhanwaad! ❤
I am so very happy to hear that. Thanks for your feedback
Thankyouuu soo much I tried with ur technique and my rotis were too good ❤❤
I am so happy to hear that.
Thank you so very much. I made them with atta flour. I was beginning to get discouraged using the atta, your tips truly help. ❤❤
I am so happy you found this video useful. Thanks.
@@CurriesWithBumbi please keep posting ❤️. Do you have Some breakfast dishes?. I love indian food, i cook them quit often but chapati with atta has always been a challenge. What part of India are you from if you dont mind me asking?
@ladyzioness I am from Kolkata
Thank you sister! Love this , easy way to make.
Thanks for leaving a comment 🙏🏾
I recently found your channel and it has helped me so much! I love your methods, adore your humor and really admire your humility. You are fantastic and I appreciate you sharing what is obviously decades of experience! Simple and delicious!!
Thanks for your kind words. I am glad you find my videos useful.
I am making chapaties for more than 55 years or more and as you said practice makes it easier. For me making 50 chapaties is very easy task but now being just 2 of us have to make 3-4 chapaties for lunch or dinner. Haah, that is difficult! Isn't it? But I do enjoy cooking fresh chapaties everyday. You have explained the whole procedure with lot of patience and all useful tips for beginners. I am sure my granddaughters when they will start cooking for themselves, they will search on the youtube how to make roti like mom and dadi made! 😀 and they will find your video very useful. Now a days girls are too much busy with school home work and other school activities that helping mom in the kitchen comes to last priority. Don't blame them at all, the time has changed. But one thing is positive that if they need to and want to cook, lots of videos are there for them to learn cook. Thanks for the video.
Loved reading your comment. Thanks
I have seen so many videos.. But your way of telling the receive is something different.. It gives me courage to do even after I give fail attempts.. It's gives me positive view to understand that it perfectly even if u fail to make it, u r just beginner.. U should not compare with ur in law even when they do.. Be positive and patience and try.. One day u will succeed.. U will gain that experience.. ❤
Practice, Patience, Perseverance are the three key words to be successful in making perfect rotis.
Thank you for the instructions, very helpful, learnt from my mistakes and yes, so good to hear your voice whilst learning
Excellent explanation. I followed the recipe and my roties came out soft and remained soft the next day as well. Thank you so much for the wonderful recipe.
Glad you liked it
You explain very clearly and in detail. Fantastic. In the end you boble up on an enectric stove. That is nice. I have only electric stove.🎉
Thanks for first time I had seen a video perfectly guiding how to Make perfect Chapati ..thanks 👍
This is the best Roti video I've ever seen！It is a clear explanation video. I was upset when the Roti didn't puff.
Please keep practising and you will soon get them puffed up.
Thank you so much for your detailed instruction and tips to make Roti, can’t wait to get started🙏
Fell in love with your teaching, one of the best explanations & teaching 👌🏼🥰 a MUST watch for all chapatis makers…
Thanks for watching
I like the way you speak. Very consoling.thank you. I still can't get it right. So I hardly make chapaties. Will try your method and get back to you.
Please keep trying. Patience is key to making chapatis. You will soon be successful
Nice tip n trick I try to make these rotis so hard but doesn't get that consistency or perfection but thank u you give such teach such a perfect n easy method
Thanks a lot for the well spoken and the detailed explanation using the right tone where required. you reminded me of one of my class teacher. I knew that bengolis are well educated and well spoken people and you have once again proved it. Thanks again for helping me out as I' am a beginner and this video of yours has definately helped me out to understand about the right technique to do a perfect roti and also motivating all of us that failure is key to success.
Thanks for your kind words
Thank you bumbi, I never thought it would be possible to make such soft roti’s
Thank you. You're one of my first teachers for Roti and Chapattis. Appreciated:)
Happy cooking
Patience and soft spoken I must congratulate you Ma'am. You have explained in such a simple and beautiful way. God bless your dedication and concern to learners 🙌 😊🦋Thank you🙏
Thanks for your kind words

Thank you. The best one I’ve seen yet. You explain everything very well.
Thanks, simple explanations and very useful especially for the beginner. I will try your technique.

Very very good. I am so very happy to hear that dear. All credit goes to you.
