Wheat roti, a staple in Indian cuisine, is a round flatbread made from whole wheat flour mixed with water, kneaded into dough, and cooked on a griddle (tava) without added oil or fat. Known for its simplicity and versatility, a single homemade wheat roti is nutrient-rich and a healthier carbohydrate option. It is high in dietary fiber, aids digestion, and serves as a steady source of energy. Whole wheat provides essential vitamins and minerals like folate, magnesium, and iron. It is free from added sugars and preservatives, making it an excellent base for balanced meals when paired with vegetables, lentils, or proteins. However, individuals monitoring their calorie intake or with specific dietary restrictions should consume it in moderation, as excessive wheat consumption may contribute to bloating or weight gain for some. Easy to make and widely enjoyed, wheat roti remains a wholesome, adaptable choice in traditional diets.
