Chapati (Indian Flat Bread) Recipe
Guest Author - vandana trivedi

Ingredients
wheat flour - 2 cups
Warm milk - 1/2 cup(optional)
Plain flour - ¼ cup (to dust the chapatis)
Warm water - enough to make a soft dough

Method:
Mix the wheat flour and milk and make a soft and moist dough by slowly adding water(u don't want to get it too soft). Knead it till it looks smooth. Cove the dough and keep aside at least for 30 minutes.
Divide the dough in to 6-8 balls with the dough and dust them with the plain flour (to prevent sticking) and roll into thin flat tortilla like rounds using a rolling pin. ( keep applying plain flour in between to prevent it from sticking on to roller pin).
Heat a skillet and put the chapati and let it cook for a minute and the top looks dry then turn it over and cook on the other side till small bubbles appear and chapati starts to puff. Once cooked remove it from skillet aply some clarified butter on one side(optional) and store in a kitchen towel lined bread basket to keep them from drying.

You can use Clean Kitchen towel or flat lattle to press it gently while cooking the other side, if you like your chapaties puffed. (this might take a while to perfect the art of puffing the chapati.)

Serve the chappatis with any kind of gravy.
You can also freeze them for later use.
