Steps

1

Take a big bowl add flour and knead the dough adding water.add oil gradually and knead the dough until soft and smooth. Grease hand with oil and knead it softly and keep aside closing vessel or cloth for 10 mins. After 10 mins knead it again with hand and fingers. To get soft dough give good punches to dough.
2

Keep tawa to get heat. Divide the dough into small equal size portions.take each dough and make small round balls
3

With the help of rolling pin and board. Deep ball in to the dry dough and roll small roti Again take roti in your hand and dust in dry flour and roll it. Roll it till we get the round circular disc shape

Keep tawa to get heat. Take roti into your hand and place on tawa. Cook the bottom side for few seconds on medium flame.when air bubbles appear at the top turn flame into high with the help of tongs flip it and place the roti directly on the flame.
5

The side which was cooked for few seconds will faced the flame. Once roti is placed on flame it puffs up immediately take roti on the plate and apply ghee. Meanwhile keep other roti ready on the board and place on tawa.it can be served with any gravy.

Roti should not be too thick nor thin. And there are stands available in market to make phulka but I have directly placed the roti on the stove. Do not waste more dusting flour. Do not add more water while kneading dough. It may spoil. Puffing of phulka can be obtained only by practice.
