Hi All,
CHAPATHI!! Everyone knows chapathi preparation method , but
some people like me doesn’t know the tricks in making proper soft chapathi J so this recipe with help
them.
Actually I never got soft chapathi for long time…I always
get confused why chapathis are not so soft L,Then
I finally learned the secret behind it.The trick is in making the dough! The
right amount of water and proper way of kneading the dough gives you the soft ,
puff chapathis.
Though my chapathis are soft but I can never make perfect round
chapathis ( you can even see the funny shape of my chapathi in pictures J)
The recipe is below,
INGREDIENTS :
Wheat flour – 5 cups.
Salt – 1 tsp
Water – as required.
METHOD :
1) In a
bowl add wheat flour ,salt and give a quick mix.
2) Add
water little by little to the flour and knead well with hands.
3) Knead
well till the flour forms to soft dough as like in the picture.
4) The
dough must form a mass , it should not stick to the vessel.
5) Now
make small balls out from the dough .
6) Flatten
the balls to thin discs with roller and pin.
7) Heat tawa
and place the flatten dough in the hot tawa and sprinkle two drops of oil over
the tawa.
8) Once
the chapathis changes its colour invert it .
9) Slightly
press the chapathis with the spatula to make air circulate within the chapathis
well and make it to swell well.
10)
Invert the chapathis four to five times till
the chapathis are boiled well.
11)
Remove from tawa and serve hot.
NOTES :
1) Boiled
chapathis must flow like a soft cloth , it should not be so stiff , so remove
from heat at right consistency.
2) Always
store prepared chapathis is closed boxes , don’t keep it in open air else they
will lose its softness.
3) The
quality of chapathis depend on your flour quality so always choose good quality
wheat flour.
