Tips:

  • Ensure that the wheat flour is freshly ground to preserve its nutrients and flavor.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan or griddle to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chapatis from burning.
  • Knead the dough thoroughly to develop the gluten and make the chapatis soft and pliable.
  • If the dough becomes too sticky, add a little more flour until it reaches a smooth and elastic consistency.
  • Rest the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out to allow the gluten to relax and make the chapatis easier to roll.
  • Roll out the dough as thinly as possible to ensure that the chapatis cook evenly.
  • Cook the chapatis on a medium-high heat until they are golden brown and puffed up.
  • Serve the chapatis hot with your favorite curry or side dish.

Making whole wheat chapatis is a simple and rewarding process that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
