Ingredients

  • 1 cup atta | whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ tsp salt optional
  • ½ tsp oil
  • Ghee | oil few drops to smear on the phulkas

Instructions

  • In a mixie jar add 1 cup of atta. I have used aashirwad brand atta. Also tried with pillsburry and other brand too.
  • Add the salt, if using.
  • Add ½ cup of water.
  • Cover the jar and pulse it for few seconds.
  • It will gather into a whole mass.
  • Take out from the mixie jar.
  • See the clean mixie jar, it is easy to wash.
  • Transfer this to a bowl.
  • Add ¼ tsp of oil.
  • Gently smear on it and keep it covered for minimum 10 minutes.
  • You can make the dough in the evening and make chapati in the night too.
  • The resting time will release more gluten from the dough and make it even soft.

Let’s make chapati.

  • Make equal lemon sized balls of the dough.
  • Dust this with rice flour or atta.
  • Roll this into a roti.
  • Place this on a hot tawa.
  • Cook on both sides, press with a spatula on the sides of the roti.
  • Once both sides are cooked, smear little ghee or oil on it.
  • Soft chapatis are ready.

Let’s make phulkas.

  • Place the rolled roti on hot tawa.
  • Cook it for few minutes.
  • Flip it and once you see small bubbles, take out and place it on direct flame.
  • Once it puffs up on one side, flip and cook for a second.
  • Take out and smear some ghee on it.
  • While putting the rotis on direct flame be careful not to make any small tear roti else it won’t puff up.
  • Repeat for the remaining dough.
  • Always keep the chapatis | phulkas covered.

Notes

1. I have tried making dough in this method for a maximum of 2 cups of dough.
2. Use a big mixie jar for making in big portions.
3. Follow the same measurement of water and flour for perfect dough.
4. You can use soft rice flour or atta or plain flour for dusting the dough.
5. Phulkas or chapatis stay soft for 3-4 hours if kept covered well.
