Chappatti/ Roti

Chappatti / Roti


Ingredients :

• Whole wheat flour / Atta - 2 cups
• Salt - 1 ts
• Oil - 1 Tblsp (Vegetable oil)
• Warm water - 1/2 cup (app.)
  

Method :

• Mix the flour, salt and warm water and knead the dough.
  
• Apply few drops of oil to the vessel and the dough and knead once again. Knead the dough nicely to make it soft which will ensure final soft chapattis.
• Cover it with moist kitchen towel and let it rest for atleast 15 minutes.
• Knead the dough again and make lemon sized balls.
• Dip each ball into dry flour and roll out the chappattis.
  
• Place a griddle / cooking pan on the stove at medium-high heat. When the griddle is hot, put the rolled out chapatti on it.
• While light brown spots appear, flip the chappatti. Drizzle/Spray few drops of oil on this side.
• After 30 seconds, flip once again and spray little oil. Press gently all around the chapatti with a crumbled up paper towel or clean kitchen cloth or the back of a spatula. This will help the chappatti to puff up.
• Remove when both sides are cooked, i.e brown spots appear on both sides
• Transfer the chappttis immedietely after making them to a hot pack to maintain its softness.
  Serve with some spicy curry.
