Directions:
- Place the 2.5 cups of chapati flour in a large bowl.
- Mix in the water to make a dough.
- Cover tightly and let rest for 2 - 2.5 hours.
- After resting, need the dough well.
- Heat up a flat cast iron griddle over medium heat.
- Divide the dough into peach-sized balls.
- Lightly flour your work surface.
- Flatten a ball out with your hand.
- With a rolling pin, roll the ball into a thin round 5 inch patty.
- Roll out from the center turning the patty several times to prevent sticking - use the extra flour here if needed.
- Try to keep the edges thinner than the middle.
- Note: It is easiest to roll out one and while it is cooking to roll out the next rather than roll all out at once.
- Hold the rolled patty in one palm and flip it onto the hot skillet.
- If you are using an electric stove, please see the note below.
- When the color changes on the top and bubbles appear, flip the chapati.
- When both sides are done remove the chapati from the skillet (you can use tongs to do this).
- Note for an electric stove: After you have flipped it the first time, press chapati with a dish towel to encourage puffing. Repeat this when you flip it to the other side. This may require flipping several times to insure chapati is done.
- Note for a gas stove: After chapati has been removed from the griddle, hold it over a medium flame and the chapati will puff up. Flip it and do the other side. Do this until the edges are well cooked.
- Keep chapatis warm by placing in a towel lined bowl and keeping the towel folded around the chapatis.
- Serve hot plain or topped with a small amount of ghee or butter.
