1 cup water
1tbsp oil
1/2 tsp cumin
1 large onion, 2 green chillies (finely chopped)
Hand full of chopped coriander leaves

Cooking Method.
Bring water to a rolling boil in a sauce pan. Add salt, oil and cumin, give a mix, then add rice flour, onion, green chilles, coriander, coconut and mix well until no lumps remain.
Turn the heat off. Cover the pan and set it aside for 5 minutes. Now knead the dough while its still hot, make it like a chapati dough.
Heat a tava on medium heat. Once heated, turn the heat to low.
Divide the dough into 2 inch balls and keep them covered under a damp cloth.
Spread some rice flour on the rolling board. Place a ball in the center and sprinkle more flour on top. Keep rolling the ball with the rolling pin into a round with even thickness.
Transfer onto the heated tava with the top surface up and cook the roti both the side. Apply little oil if needed on to both the side.
Follow the same method for the rest of them.
Serve hot with any Chutney or Chicken curry.
