Method:

1. Mix the flour, onions, chilies, coriander, curry leaves, bicarbonate of soda and salt to taste. Gradually blend in enough water to make a batter just thick enough to pour. Lightly grease a frying pan (skillet) and add just enough batter to cover it thinly, spreading the batter with the back of a spoon, if necessary.

2. Pour a little ghee around the edge to prevent sticking and fry until lightly browned on the underside. Flip over and brown the other side. Cook the remaining roti in the same way.
