Bring the dough together and form a smooth, pliable, non sticky dough. Cover with a clean muslin cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Sprinkle a pinch of flour on it to prevent roti from sticking.
Then, divide the dough into small size balls. Pick one ball and roll it out into a chapati dusting it with rice flour.
Gently transfer rice flour roti into the preheated tawa. Cook the roti for a few minutes on each side until the brown charred marks appear. If you want you can puff it directly over the flame.
