INGREDIENTS
- 2cupswhole wheat flour
- 1tablespoonoil
- 1/4teaspoonsalt
- water, as required to knead
DIRECTIONS
- Put everything in a flat round mixing bowl.
- Knead well.
- Make small round balls out of the dough.
- Flatten each on the palm of your hand.
- Using a rolling pin, roll out to form Indian flatbreads (also known as rotis or chappatis in Hindi).
- Heat a non-stick pan on medium flame.
- Put each chappati on it and cook on one side first until it starts to show small air bubbles.
- This means that the side facing down on the non-stick pan is getting cooked.
- Now, turn onto the other side and cook the same way until you see small air bubbles on this side as well.
- After one minute, using a small clean kitchen napkin, press the roti at portions that are not thoroughly cooked.
- Keep turning the chappati with the help of the napkin in round circles, pressing all the uncooked portions, if any, until the chappati is completely cooked.
- When you press, you will see air fill into the chappati and that means that it’s really well cooked!
- Now remove from flame and serve at once with any dry vegetable or non-vegetarian dish.
