Chapati
- Ingredients
- 125g. or 1 cup white flour
- 125g. or 1 cup wholewheat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
- water to make a dough
- 1 tablespoon softened butter or ghee
Method:
Sift flours and salt together in a bowl. Add oil and enough cold
water to make a stiff dough. Kead for 5-8 minutes until satiny and
elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it stand for 2-3 hours.
Knead again and divide into balls, about 3-4 cm in diameter. Roll
into flat pancakes with oil., butter or ghee. Place chapati in pan
and cook until it begins to puff up. Press with a spatula to assist
the puffing up process. This ensures light and fluffy chapatis. Turn
over and repeat the process. Remove from the pan and place in
foil or a cloth, spreading butter on top of each chapati. Serve
immediately.
