Recipe

Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 15 mins Ready Time: 30 mins


• 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 a soft dough that is elastic but not sticky. 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 chapati on it. cook until the underside has brown spots, about 30 seconds, then flip and cook on the other side. continue with remaining dough.
