I sometimes see roti spelled as rooti. How do you pronounce it then ? It just sounds off to me!

Spelt "roti"
Pronounced "rooty"

In all my travels through India and my exposure to Indian culture I have never heard anyone pronounce it as 'rooty'.

Maybe in the Cape ?

Yep, in PE too... also see wiki:
Roti, pronounced "Rooti" in Cape Town, is also a staple food source amongst many of the Indian, Asian and Cape coloured communities living in South Africa and is either eaten as a flat bread or a wrap with locally made curries.
