-
Place the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Make
a well in the middle and gradually stir in the water, mixing well
with your fingers.
-
Form a supple dough and knead for 7-10 minutes.
Ideally, cover with clear film (plastic wrap) and leave on one side
for 15-20 minutes to rest.
-
Divide the dough into 8-10 equal portions. Roll
out each piece to a circle on a well floured surface.
-
Place the tava (chapatti griddle) or a heavy
frying pan over a high heat.
-
When steam rises from it, lower the heat to
medium and add the first chapatti to the pan.
-
When the chapatti begins to bubble, turn it
over. Press down with a clean dish towel or a flat spoon and turn
once again.
-
Remove the cooked chapatti from the pan and
keep warm in a piece of foil lined with kitchen paper while you cook
the other chapattis.
-
Repeat the process until all the breads are
cooked.
-
Serve hot.
