Chapatis


Makes approximately 12

Ingredients

2 cups whole wheat flour
Additional flour for rolling
1 cup of water (approximately)
½ tablespoon of salt or to taste if you want more
2 tablespoon of vegetable or canola oil

Directions

Mix flour and salt well. Make a hole in flour and mix in a little water at a time while trying to form dough. Add little water at a time to ensure the dough consistency does not get too soft or sticky. You can always add more flour to thicken the mixture. Knead for five minutes, cover with wet cloth and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Roll out flour into a small log and portion 12 small rounds. Heat a flat pan, nonstick pan, until hot OR tortilla press work too. Roll out 1/2 a handful of dough into a flat round shape (3mm thick) and put into pan, cooking for 1 minute either side. Once turned press gently with a towel, until brown. Keep warm.
