Step wise pics Procedure for ‘Avocado Roti / Tortilla (Whole Wheat)’:

Instead of food processor, you can even use a mixing bowl and knead the dough with hands.

Tips:

You can use either fully ripe avocado or unripe one too.
I used my food processor for making the chapati / tortilla dough, if not you can do the same manually in a mixing bowl using your hands.
You can use any masala powder for flavouring, like curry powder, sambar powder, amchur powder too.
