What does ROTI mean in Scrabble?
noun
Indian EnglishCaribbean
A round, flat, unleavened bread cooked on a griddle, common in South Asian and Caribbean cooking.
Roti is made from wheat flour dough rolled thin and cooked without yeast, giving it a soft, pliable texture rather than a risen loaf. It originated in South Asia and travelled with Indian communities to the Caribbean, where it is often wrapped around curried fillings. The word names both the plain bread and, in the Caribbean, the filled dish made from it.
