Most Indian homes have chapatis as their staple diet. I call myself a good cook but till today I have not succeeded in making chapatis of the kind you see in the photo.
These days chapatis are made from whole wheat that is supposed to be good for health. A touch of ghee adds more taste.
The other versions are parotta, and rumali roti and I am no good in making these as well
Those of you who have never tried making chapatis here is a video
How good are you in making chapatis?

@allknowing no. We don't make it puff up. Make it on the tawa.

That is possible. I know that a lot of the flatbreads I have researched have been used by ancient peoples for centuries but each tribe gave it a different name and probably used different kinds of flour depending on what was in the area where they gathered seeds.

@allknowing I use the same flour that I use to make our normal Italian bread and pizza, that is not exactly what American call "all purpose", it's a stronger flour.

I have this on television, but I have never tried it before. I would like to try it once to see what it is like.
