Today i am here with the secret of making soft Chapathi. It is a unleavened flat bread made from whole wheat flour. it is a staple in India.it is also known as roti .But instead of plain roti this layered chapati taste good and stays soft for a long time.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 3/4 cup Luke warm water
• 2 tsp oil or ghee

Method:

1. Combine the above ingredients  to make a soft dough.
2. Knead for at least 5 minutes. Cover the dough and allow it to rest for at least 20 to 30 minutes.
3. After 30 minutes divide the dough into 12 equal round parts. Roll each round into flat disks ,then apply some ghee,dust it with dry flour,then spread it evenly.as shown in the above picture. then fold it to half moon shape,then fold it again to make triangle shape.Then roll into big triangle or round shape.
4. Put the chapati on a hot griddle,The tawa must be heated properly. Place rolled out dough on tawa and wait till small bubbles appear. Turn the chapathi to the other side and rotate while it cooks. Lift a corner to see whether it has cooked and if it has, turn once again.flip it to the other side. Apply a little ghee or butter or oil on top and again flip it over and apply ghee, butter or oil.Fry till well roasted on both the sides or until brown spot appears, remove on a plate
5. Now Chapati is ready to serve with vegetable sagoo or kurma or any other veg and non-veg  curries of your choice.
   
   
   
   Tip:
   First the wheat flour you are using should be good quality or branded one.Never use maida/all purpose flour . Use whole wheat flour only.It must be treated with three to four spoons of oil which is mixed thoroughly and then the water is added to make dough.
   Secondly, to make soft Chapathis, the dough should not be very loose and too soft.It should also be not too hard.
   Thirdly, the rolling of the chapathis is an art by itself.You must roll them evenly without any hard pressure placed on the dough with the rolling pin.
   Lastly the tawa should be hot when you are frying chapati
