So do all the dough have roti because it looks so full at first

Hi there, Robin! Each dough ball gets filled with the split pea mixture. It does look full at first, but once you seal it and roll it out, it spreads evenly throughout the roti. Just be sure not to roll it too thin so the filling doesn’t poke through. Hope this helps! 😊

Made this tonight! Hard to shape without tearing. But tastes really good. I think it would be good with a dipping sauce or chutney.

Hi there, Janelle, so glad you enjoyed it! If the dough tears while shaping, you can try letting it rest a little longer before rolling so the gluten can relax. You can also lightly oil your hands and the surface when sealing the dough to help it stretch more easily 😊

Interesting, I gotta try this! There is sweet version of this called Puran poli. Traditionally made using only whole wheat flour, split y peas and jaggery n few spices. It doesn't require baking powder or all purpose flour.
