Anyone can make soft chapathis. The real challenge is, Does it remain soft for a longer time? I was wondering why my chapathis do not remain soft for even half an hour. I tried different brands of flour. Finally, I got what I wanted. The magic flour is Pillsbury Chakki Fresh Atta (which is whole wheat). Now, the Chapathis are so soft for longer hours. That gives me the energy and enthu to prepare chapathis everyday. Here's how I make Chapathis.
Ingredients:
2 Cups - Pillsbury Chakki Fresh Atta
1/4 teaspoon Salt
3/4 tablespoon Oil
water
Little oil for making chapathis
Method:
Mix the salt and oil to the flour. Add water little by little and Knead the dough. The consistency should not be too sticky or too hard.
Make small balls and roll each ball. Dredge in the flour if its sticky.
Heat a Tawa and place a rolled chapathi. After you notice the chapathi slightly puffing, immediately apply very very little oil and press all around and turn around the chapathi ( Do not allow the other side to become too dry). Press the Chapathi. Again you will notice the chapathi puffing. Again apply very little oil on the upper side and turn around the chapathi again. After a couple of seconds, take away the chapathi from the Tawa. The final product should still be soft. These chapathis are healthy and remain soft for longer duration.
