Whole Wheat Chapati Flatbread

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2/3 cup warm water
  • 1 dash vegetable oil
  • salt

Method

  1. 1 In a large bowl, combine flour, warm water, oil, and salt. Mix with a fork, then knead by hand until a dough ball forms.
  2. 2 Knead the dough for 10 minutes, then let it rest for 30 minutes covered with a damp cloth.
  3. 3 Divide dough into 6 pieces. Roll each into a thin 7-inch circle.
  4. 4 Heat a lightly greased cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each chapati for 30 seconds per side until brown spots and bubbles appear.
  5. 5 Wrap cooked chapatis in a cloth napkin to keep warm. Serve immediately with butter or as a scoop for other dishes.
