Ingredients

Make about six 6”-wide Roti Prata.
500 g plain flour, sifted
100 g sugar
100 g margarine, melted
2 tbs milk
Water
Option: ghee or oil to taste

Method

•    In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar
•    Create a well in the centre and add the margarine and milk
•    Knead well, adding water as required to form a smooth dough
•    Rest the dough for at least 2 hours, lightly greasing the surface with ghee or oil to keep it from drying out
•    On well-oiled surface, divide the dough into six balls, kneading each portion well
•    Use a rolling pin to flatten each ball into a flat disc, then using your hands, stretch the dough into a thin almost translucent –sheet. You many want to gently brush the sheet with some extra ghee or oil.
•    Fold the edges of the dough inwards to form a neat square
•    On a well-oiled hot grill or non-stick frying pan, grill the dough till it browns well on both sides
•    Serve hot with sides of you choice-curry, sugar, even bananas or ice-cream.
