Chapati

We have chapathis quite often - usually for dinner.

@allknowing, There are different ways to make chapati. Different place have different method to make it. However, the kind of chapati you have mentioned in the photo, mostly are made in northern part of India. Chapati we call it roti are not easy to prepare. There is lot goes from making the dough to rolling and putting it on to hot tava. If we make little mistake, the kind of chapati will not be made the way it look in the photo. I have learned to make roti from my sisters. First we need to make soft dough only using water (some people mix oil or ghee as well). Then we have to roll it thin in round shape. When you put it on to tava, make sure that the side which is down should be heat less and when you put it on the other side, that side has to heat more. And when you you put it on oven, make sure that lesser heat side should be downside. And then only you can make such chapati which is shown on the photo. If we mix oil or ghee with water, it will not look the way in photo. If I make 10 chapati, I am sure at least 5 of that will prepare like how it looks on the photo.

I dont make them but sounds good..I have had them a long time ago and they were very good.

I love chapati and I make it time by time, I do not use whole wheat, I know it's healthier, but I like more all purpose flour.

It looks like a large biscuit.

I would like to be able to make dhalpouri.

I have a friend who says they are tasty, but I have never tried.

I had never heard of it before now.

Can you believe that I am very good at making this? Actually it is just quite easy. I learned it via the net and it was so successful.

My wife makes it better than me. Maybe because she makes it most of the time.

I have tasted something similar called flatbread which is tasty once some toppings are put on them.

Do they have a filling of some sort ?

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.
