CHAPATI PAKISTANI BREAD
2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp. dry yeast
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. oil
1 c. water
Mix flour, salt, and yeast in a
bowl. Combine the oil and water and slowly mix it
into the dry ingredients. Let rise for 1-2 hours.
Makes one dozen balls out of the dough using more
flour as needed to keep them from sticking. Cover
them with a wet towel until ready to use to
prevent them from drying out. Preheat the oven to
500 degrees. Roll each ball into a flat round
Chapati as thin as possible, sprinkling with flour
as you go the help prevent sticking. Bank one side
of each Chapati becomes light brown, remove it
with the tongs and keep it in a towel. These can
be eaten plain or with butter and served with
soup, meat, and vegetables.
