Ingredients
- 1 cup of chapati flour
- 0.5 cups of warm water
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 0.5 handful of plain flour
Method
- Rub the oil into the flour (squeezing tightly)
- Add the water a little at a time to make the dough soft (the dough should be quite wet - soft and slightly sticky)
- Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes and cover with a thin layer of oil
- Leave in an airtight container for at least 15 minutes to an hour
- Heat a small frying pan on a medium to high heat (8) - note - no oil
- Split the mixture into 6 parts
- Roll each piece of dough into a small ball, coat in a little flour and squash in your hands
- Put the plain flour on the surface and roll into a disc the size of the frying pan
- Put the dough into the pan, turn after 10s, then turn occasionally until brown (not black!) spots appear on both sides
- Wrap in foil while making the remaining chapatis
- Serve with soup or curry
