Directions
Subru Uncle’s Recipe to Prepare Dough for Indian Flatbread,We make about 20 of these everyday! Since I have a weight gaining problem with wheat, I have stopped eating these since 2 years. The rest of my family loves these! I’ll be making ALOT of these in US while on my holiday! Enjoy!UPDATE: I make these every night here in US and serve it with fresh vegetables and dry lentil curries. It is awesome to eat these on cold nights with a spread of pure honey(plain) on one side and rolled/folded and eaten! Enjoy:-),I was looking for a flatbread that was simpler to make than pitas and that would go well with houmous and baba ganouj and this fit the bill. This was so simple to make and very tasty. I’ll make it again. It made 11 breads for me, about 4 inches across and the same thickness as the photo. They did poof up as they were cooking but flattened as they cooled. And used the listed ingredients…no yeast needed to make the poof up.,I’ll be upfront; I’ve never ever made chapatis, and I have never ever seen anyone make them, so the directions were a little confusing for me! used another cookbook to learn a more specific way of cooking the bread, and I ended up using a cup of water and an extra quarter cup of flour to get a good consistency in the dough. After rolling them out, I put them on a nonstick griddle for two minutes on one side and one minute on the other. Afterwards, I placed them directly over the gas stove flame for a minute or so on each side so they would puff up. They were a great addition to my Indian-themed dinner! and were excellent for dipping in the sauce from your Jhinga nisha. EDIT: Just to clarify, I am the one who took the pictures, and while I don’t remember exactly how many flatbreads the recipe made, I did NOT use any yeast.
