For making the rotis - Take the lukewarm water in a bowl and add salt and oil to it. Mix it well. Now add the flour to it and make into a nice and smooth dough. Add water or flour as required. Keep aside for 15 minutes. After 15 minute roll the dough into small lemon size balls and make them into small chapatis/ rotis/circles.

Heat the tava and cook the roti on one side. Don't flip the roti. Pour oil around the roti. Lift up the edge of the roti lightly to check if its cooked well. If u see light brown spots.. your roti is ready... remove from flame. Store in a tissue lined box or plate. Cover it with a plate to keep the rotis soft.Do this with all the balls and keep aside.
