Chapati Recipe
1.Coat the base
and sides of a utensil with 1 teaspoon of oil.
Add wheat flour
and salt. Mix.
Add milk / curd /
yogurt to the mixture.
To make the soft
dough, use your fingers and move them in a circular pattern, while adding water
to the mixture. This way, you will allow the air also into the mixture, which
helps in making soft chapatis.
2. Knead the dough for 1 minute.
3.Coat the dough
with little oil, cover the dough with a bowl turned upside down
Set it aside for 10-15 minutes.
4.knead the dough
well and create 6 equal sized balls and press.
5. Take a ball and dip it in the wheat
flour.
6.Roll out the
flattened ball into the size of a poori using a rolling pin.
7.Add few drops of
oil.
Spread the oil
evenly on the entire surface.
8. Sprinkle 1 pinch of flour.
9. Fold it into half. Repeat steps 7 and 8.
10.Fold it into
half. You will get a triangle shape.
11. Press the edges between you fingers.
12.Dip the triangle
shaped dough again in the wheat flour and roll out into a chapati.
To avoid sticking
of the dough on to the rolling pin or rolling board, while rolling out, use
wheat flour often.
13. Heat a tawa or pan.
14. Drop a rolled-out dough on the tawa, which
is well-heated.
15. Sprinkle few drops of oil. Spread it using a spatula.
Wait for few
minutes.
16. Flip the half-cooked chapati, when the color changes or a few bubbles
appear on the top surface.
17. Sprinkle few drops of oil.
Slightly press
the chapati with a wooden chapati press.
18. Cook until both sides have golden brown
spots.
19. Remove from the tawa.
Follow the same
procedure for the rest of the balls.
