Chef's Notes
Pearl millet flour has a stubborn personality and zero gluten, so do not skip the arm workout during the kneading phase or your roti will shatter into historical fragments.
Pro Tip
Always use steaming hot water for the dough. It gelatinizes the starches just enough to hold the whole fragile operation together without a drop of wheat gluten.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
You ignore the hot water rule, use freezing tap water instead, and end up with a pile of grey sand that crumbles into sorrow the second it touches the griddle.

Royal Court Comedy
Oh, a recipe with no gluten? My royal intestines are throwing a parade in your honor, even if the taste is humbler than my gardener's outfit.
The Culinary Science
Without gluten proteins to form an elastic matrix, bajra relies entirely on mechanical kneading and hot water hydration to trap steam and puff up.

Starch Retrogradation Reversal
Storage Science
Store at room temperature in a breathable bread bag or paper wrapper for up to 2 days. DO NOT refrigerate, as the cold accelerates starch retrogradation (staling). For long-term storage, freeze tightly wrapped.
Reheating Science
To reverse staling, flick a few drops of water onto the crust and reheat in a 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) oven for 5-8 minutes. The steam will re-gelatinize the starches, making the crumb soft and the crust crisp.
