CHAPATTI

Preparation Method :

• Sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre and gradually stir in the water, mixing well with your fingers.
• Form supple dough and knead for 10 minutes. Ideally, cover with clear film (plastic wrap) and leave to one side for 20 minutes to rest.
• Divide the dough into 8 - 10 equal portions. Roll out each piece to a circle on a well-floured surface.
• Place a tava (chapatti griddle) or heavy frying pan over high heat. When steam rises from it, lower the heat to medium and add the first chapatti to the pan.
• When the chapatti begins to bubble, turn it over. Press down with a clean dishtowel or a flat spoon and turn once again.
• Remove the cooked chapatti from the pan and keep warm in a piece of foil lined with kitchen paper while you cook the other chapattis.
• Repeat the process until all the breads are cooked. Serve hot.
