1

Welcome everyone to the episode and introduction to making chapatis.

2

Use whole wheat flour (chapati atta) for a denser chapati.

3

Add 2 cups of chapati atta to a mixing bowl.

4

Add 2 pinches of salt for taste.

5

Pour in 1.5 cups of boiling water to keep the chapatis soft.

6

Use a spoon to mix the flour and water together until it forms a dough, being careful as the water is hot.

7

Once mixed, let it cool for a few minutes before kneading with hands.

8

Knead the dough for about 5-6 minutes until smooth, then let it rest for a few minutes.

9

Divide the dough into 8 small balls for chapatis.

10

Dust the surface with flour and use a rolling pin to flatten each ball into a thick disc.

11

Heat a cast-iron pan on the stove until hot.

12

Place the rolled chapati onto the hot pan and wait for bubbles to appear.

13

Once bubbles appear, flip the chapati to cook the other side until it puffs up.

14

Press down gently on the chapati to ensure it cooks through without being doughy.

15

Repeat the process for the remaining chapatis, adjusting the heat as necessary.

16

Optionally, chapatis can be cooked directly on a naked flame for better puffing.
