1

Mix 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour and 1.25 teaspoons of salt in a bowl.

2

Add 1 egg to the flour mixture.

3

Pour in 1.25 cups of hot water and mix properly.

4

Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes until it is soft and sticky.

5

Add a bit of oil to the dough to reduce stickiness, but do not add too much flour as it will make the dough hard.

6

Let the dough rest for at least 20 to 30 minutes to become softer.

7

After resting, cut the dough into equal parts (4 parts).

8

Shape each part into a ball using your hands.

9

Heat a pan on medium heat.

10

Roll out each ball into a chapati shape.

11

Cook the chapati on medium heat for about 5 minutes, ensuring it does not burn or become hard.

12

Once cooked, take the chapati off the heat and place it in a tight container to keep it soft.
