Soft Roti/ Flat Bread or no yeast no oven Pita Bread

I love rotis made of whey water or buttermilk kneaded with flour. So here's a Pita bread with no yeast but made with baking soda and whey water My Granny in Nepali language used to call it Bhuke roti means something which is swollen up as the roti used to swell up and become soft, she sometimes used to make it with sourdough also because earlier yeast was not readily available as it is now.....but as later on we grew and started going places and internet started ....came to know almost the same kind of bread is called Pita bread somewhere else. #ilovecooking
