Whole Wheat Flatbread (chapati) Recipe
Yield: 14 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cup: Durum flour,
1/2 tsp: Sea salt,
1 tbsp: Canola oil,
2/3 cup: -Very warm water,
Directions:
Combine flours and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Mix in oil and water to form a stiff dough, adding more water if
necessary. Remove dough from bowl and knead on a lightly floured
surface until smooth, about
5 minutes.
Return dough to bowl, cover with a towel and set aside in a warm
place for one hour.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 14 equal
portions. Roll each piece into a ball and cover with a damp towel.
Heat an ungreased griddle or large frying pan over medium heat.
Working with one ball of dough at a time, flatten it, then roll into
a 6" circle, using only enough flour to keep dough from sticking.
When griddle is hot, pick up dough, shake off excess flour and place
it on a hot pan. Cook until brown spots appear, about one minute.
Flip dough over and cook on other side. (Chapati may puff up while
cooking.)
Cover and place in a warm oven while cooking remaining chapatis.
