Repeat with another tablespoon of ghee. Lastly spread the last tablespoon of ghee onto the lump of dough and allow to stand for 30 minutes. Divide into small balls of dough. Flatten dough with the palm of your hands. Dip both sides into a little flour. Place chapati on a wooden board and roll out with a rolling pin. Brush with a little ghee and spread 1 tablespoon of spicy potato filling evenly on surface. Fold into half and then fold again to seal filling. Dip again into flour and roll out again into a thin square of chapati. Place chapati onto a flat pan over medium heat and brown both sides. Brush chapati with ghee on both sides while frying. Serve with your favourite curry, dhal or plain yogurt.
