Chappati - 1














Ingredients

Quantity
Atta (whole meat)
12 ounces
Salt
1 tsp
Water
to mix
Vegetable oil
for hands  
Atta – for dusting
2 ounces
Ghee
for spreading


Sift flour and salt together. Make a well in the centre and add small quantities of water until you have a smooth, pliable dough. Grease the palms of your hands and knead well. Keep covered until ready to use.

Divide into 10 portions, using one portion at a time and keeping the rest covered. Knead each portion into a ball, then flatten and place on floured surface. Roll out until about 7" in diameter.

Heat a griddle (without oil) and when hot cook chappati on both sides, pressing down gently. When cooked lightly spread or brush the first side only, with ghee.

NOTES: These are best eaten as soon as they are cooked. They can be kept warm, wrapped in foil and placed in a warm oven.
