Traditional Chapatis image

Traditional chapatis are made every day in India and contain only two ingredients, the flour and the water. This makes them very simple to make and very healthy too.

Time 20m

Yield 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

450 g whole wheat flour
250 ml water

Steps:

  • Add the water to the flour a little at a time, kneading as you go until you have a soft, elastic dough.
  • Sprinkle a little flour onto a flat surface or board.
  • Divide the dough into 8 and shape each piece into ball.
  • Flatten the balls slightly then place one on the floured surface and roll out into a flat disc approximately 15cm/6inches in diameter.
  • Repeat with the other 7.
  • Heat a shallow frying pan.
  • Lay a disc onto the hot pan and leave for 20 to 30 seconds until the surface is bubbly.
  • Flip over and cook the other side for 10 to 15 seconds.
  • As soon as brown spots appear on the underside it is done.
  • Repeat with the other breads.
  • Cooks tip: The longer you knead the chapati dough the softer the breads will be.

This recipe was a disaster. The dough was too sticky, the chapatis were too thick, and they didn't taste good at all.

I tried this recipe with a gluten-free flour blend, and they turned out really well. They were a bit more delicate than traditional chapatis, but they still had a great flavor and texture.

I'm not a huge fan of the whole wheat flour, so I used all-purpose flour instead. They still turned out great!

These chapatis are a bit thicker than I'm used to, but they're still delicious.

The dough was a bit sticky at first, but I added a little more flour and it came together perfectly.

I love the smoky flavor that the tava gives to these chapatis.

These chapatis are a delicious and versatile addition to any meal. I've served them with curries, stews, and even just with butter and jam.

I'm a beginner cook, and this recipe was a great starting point for me. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the chapatis turned out great.

This is my go-to chapati recipe. It's so easy to follow, and the results are always amazing. The chapatis are always soft and pliable, and they have a great flavor.

Fantastic recipe! The chapatis turned out perfect - soft, fluffy, and with a slight hint of smokiness from the tava. I used a mix of whole wheat and all-purpose flour, and they still came out delicious.
