Prep Time 10 Minutes Cooking Time 10 Minutes
Ingredients
220 g Whole Wheat Flour
200 g White Flour
1 tsp Salt
Hot Water, as required
Method
In a large bowl stir together the whole wheat flour all-purpose flour and salt.
Use a wooden spoon to stir in the olive oil and enough water to make soft dough.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until it is smooth.
Divide into 10 parts or less if you want bigger breads.
Roll each piece into a ball.
Let rest for a few minutes.
Heat a skillet over medium heat until hot and grease lightly.
On a lightly floured surface use a floured rolling pin to roll out the balls of dough until very thin like a tortilla.
When the pan starts smoking put a Chapatti in.
Cook until the underside has brown spots about 30 seconds then flip and cook on the other side.
Continue with remaining dough.
