Chapatis (Indian Or Kenyan Wholewheat Flatbread) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, plus extra for kneading and rolling out dough
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
Preparation
-
In a medium bowl, combine flour and salt. Using a wooden spoon, slowly stir in water, until dough forms. Lightly flour a clean board and knead dough until smooth, about 10 minutes. Rest dough in bowl, covered with damp towel for 20 minutes.
Preheat a griddle over medium heat.
Divide dough into 8 equal balls. Using a floured rolling pin, roll balls out on floured board to 7 inches in diameter, about 1/4-inch thick. Place the rolled out dough onto griddle. Flip when raised bumps appear on the surface of the dough, about 1 to 2 minutes. Cook second side until it turns golden. Do not cook too long or flatbread will become brittle. Cover flatbread with a towel up to 20 minutes before serving.
