Ingredients

  • whole wheat flour

    2 cups

  • warm water

    2/3 cup

  • vegetable oil

    2 teaspoons · or cooking oil of choice

  • salt

    1 dash

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash hands with soap and water.

  2. 2

    Place the flour in a large mixing bowl. Add water, oil, and salt. Mix with fork and then with hands. Keep mixing until you can make a ball.

  3. 3

    Knead the dough for about 10 minutes. Let rest for 30 minutes in the bowl, covered with a damp cloth.

  4. 4

    Roll the ball into a 12-inch log and cut into 6 chunks.

  5. 5

    Roll each chunk into a very thin pancake, about 7 inches in diameter. Don't worry about making the dough into a perfect circle-just try to get it as thin as you can.

  6. 6

    Heat a cast iron skillet (lightly greased) on medium-high heat. Place one chapati in the skillet and cook for 30 seconds.

  7. 7

    Use a spatula to lift bread. When chapati gets brown spots and bubbles, flip it over and cook for another 30 seconds.

  8. 8

    Wrap the cooked chapati in a cloth napkin while cooking the rest.

  9. 9

    Eat them right away with a little butter or margarine, or use as scoops for eating other dishes.
