Thanks Hetal,
That’s fine for the water measurement (Warm Water 3/4 cup = 6 fl.oz), but what about the non fluid item? ie. Chapati Flour–2 cups.
Thanks

Hi Min,

In the US, a standard cup measures 8 fluid ounces.

Can you please tell me what your cup size is for measurements? I believe it’s different in different countries.

Thanks

Hi Ayaan,

Personally, I have mixed feelings about tortilla presses. They work great for some things like pani puri. However, for larger things I feel that it does not roll out enough. It may be good to press the dough in the press (just to get it started) and then finish it off with a rolling pin. It may help you get a nice round shape.

Hi,
I tried your recipe for roti, came out ok. I couldn’t puff it coz I haven’t got a wire mesh yet. I would like to know if I can use a tortilla press to roll the roti.
