Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together the flours and salt. Use a wooden spoon to stir in the olive oil and enough water to make a soft dough that is elastic but not sticky.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-10 mins until it is smooth. Divide into 10 pieces, or less if you want bigger breads. Roll each piece into a ball. Let rest for a few mins.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat until hot, and grease lightly. On a lightly floured surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll out the balls of dough until very thin like a tortilla.
- When the pan starts smoking, put a chapati on it. Cook until the underside has brown spots, about 30 seconds, then flip and cook on the other side. Put on a plate and keep warm while you cook the rest of the chapatis.

TRADITIONAL CHAPATIS
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.

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.

CHAPATIS
Making chapatis can be a very relaxing thing to do. In quite a short time you can produce eight or 10 breads, each one turning out a little bit different from the others, but all of them attractive, nutritious and good. We've grown so accustomed to making chapatis that they now feel almost like a convenience food, a household staple of the best kind.

Steps:
- You will need a medium-sized bowl, a rolling pin, a castiron griddle or heavy skillet, and a small cotton cloth or a paper towel.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the salt and the flour. Make a well in the middle and add just less than 1 cup warm water. Mix with your hand or with a spoon until you can gather it together into a dough (depending on the condition of your flour, you may need a little extra water or a little extra flour to make a kneadable dough). Turn out onto a lightly floured bread board and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth or a plastic wrap and let stand for 30 minutes or for up to 2 hours. The longer the dough stands, the more digestible the breads.
- Divide the dough into 8 pieces and flatten each with lightly floured fingers. Continue flattening with a rolling pin until each piece is 8 inches in diameter. Once you have started rolling, roll out each bread without flipping it over. To keep the bread from sticking to your bread board, make sure that the bread is lightly floured underneath. Cover the breads with the damp towel or plastic wrap as you roll out others (make sure not to stack the rolled out breads; if you don't have enough counterspace for the breads, roll out just a few and begin cooking, rolling out the others as the breads cook).
- Heat a castiron griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. When the griddle is hot, place a chapati on the griddle, top side of the bread down first. Let cook for only 10 seconds and then gently flip to the second side. Cook on the second side until small bubbles begin to form, approximately one minute. Turn the chapati back to the first side and finish cooking (another minute approximately). At this stage, a perfect chapati will start to balloon. This process can be helped along by gently pressing on the bread. The bread is hot, so we find the easiest method is to use a small cotton cloth or a paper towel wadded up to protect your finger tips. Gently press down on a large bubble forcing the bubble to extend itself wider. If the bread starts to burn on the bottom before it has ballooned, move the bread (with the help of your paper towel) across the skillet, dislodging it from the point at which it is beginning to burn.
- When you are satisfied with your chapati, remove it and wrap in a clean towel. Continue to cook the other breads, stacking each as it is finished on top of the others.

CHAPATI (EAST AFRICAN BREAD)
Adopted from Indian cuisine, chapatis have been a part of East African cuisine for centuries. The East African recipe is slightly different from its Indian counterpart. This bread accompanies African soups and stews well. Preparation is minimal, making this a great choice for cooks that are in a pinch.

INDIAN GRIDDLE FLATBREADS (CHAPATIS)
Entered for ZWT. From Madhur Jaffrey's "World Vegetarian", this is quintessential Indian bread. Chapatis can be made in all sizes, but Jaffrey likes them small. Serve with beans or vegetables. You may also roll foods inside them as you would a tortilla. Traditionally, chapatis are made without salt. If you prefer, put about 1/2 teaspoon salt into the dry flour. These are best as soon as they are made, but they can be made ahead and kept in a plastic bag in the refrigerator or freezer. An assistant could form the next chapati while one is cooking to keep the process flowing smoothly. The chapati dough can also be cut into noodles, such as the traditional Dal Dhokli (Pasta in a Split Pea Sauce).

Steps:
- DOUGH:.
- Put the flour in a bowl.
- Slowly add about 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water, just enough to gather the dough together and make a ball.
- Knead the dough well for 10 minutes.
- Make a smooth ball and put it in a bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside for 30 minutes. It will turn quite soft.
- Divide into 12 balls. Keep covered while you work with the twelfth.
- COOK:.
- Set a cast-iron frying pan or griddle on medium-high heat. Allow it to heat up. Make a small wad with a cloth or paper towel and keep nearby.
- Take a ball of dough and dust it well with flour. Now roll it out into a 5-1/2-inch round on a floured surface. Lift it up and slap it back and forth between your palms to shake off the extra flour.
- DO THE FOLLOWING STEPS FAST:.
- Slap the chapati onto the hot griddle. Let it cook for 45 seconds.
- Turn it over and cook the second side for another 35-45 seconds.
- Turn it over again and cook another 5 to 6 seconds, pushing down on it with the paper wad and rotating it a little with each push. Do this fast; it helps to puff up the chapati.
- Put the cooked chapati on a plate and cover it with a towel or another upturned plate.
- Make all the chapatis this way, making sure to wipe off the cast-iron pan with a paper towel after each one is made. If it takes you a while to roll out the next chapati, turn the heat under the cast-iron pan down to low while you roll it and then turn it up again. (Or have someone else form a chapati while you cook one.).
- Serve immediately.
- These can be made ahead and stored in a plastic bag in the refrigerator or freezer. To reheat them, wrap a whole bundle of them in foil and put them in a medium oven (350F/177C) for 15 minutes. You can also sprinkle a little water on an individual chapati and then either heat it in a microwave oven for 30-45 seconds or slap it onto a hot, lightly greased griddle for a few seconds on each side.
