      WOW! You made it look easy! I tried making them but they can never turn out right . Not sure it's the timing of the temperature of the stove.

      Hi Aarthi, do we have to keep the temperature high while cooking the roti or we just need to hear the tawa and then reduce the gas while cooking ?? Please clarify. Thank you.
