Heat the "tava" .
Now put the roti on a hot tawa.
first cook one side. it should be less than half cooked or 
one-fourth cooked turn and cook the other side. this should be 
a little bit more cooked than the first side.now small bubbles 
start forming on the roti that means it is getting cooked.O
nce the bubbles visible the roti is ready to put direct on 
fire or you may use roti grill.
