Chapathi (Phulka)

for 4, serving 1 or 2 chapathis

  • 1 cup wheat flour (or 1/2 white +1/2 whole wheat)
  • 1/ 2 cup Water


Put our in a large bowl with half the water. Blend the two together until it holds. Beat and knead well until it forms a compact ball. Knead dough until it is smooth and elastic. Set aside for 30 minutes. Knead and divide dough into 4 to 6 parts. Roll each ball into a circle about 1/2 cm thick.

Heat an ungreased skillet(tava). Put chapati on it, and let it cook for about 1 minute (The top should just start to look dry and small bubbles should just start to form). Turn and cook the second side for 2 3 minutes until small bubbles form. Turn again and cook the rst side pressed lightly with a towel. It should puff . Serve warm.
