Chapatti

Serves: 10
Cooking Time: 10 mins plus extra for rising

Ingredients

  • 240g (2 cups) cake flour, sieved salt, to taste
  • 30ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
  • 180ml (¾ cup) hot water 

Instructions

1

Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl and make a well in the centre. Pour in the olive oil and mix in just enough water to make a soft dough.

2

On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. Slice into 10 equal pieces, cover and set aside until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

3

Heat a large, heavy-based frying pan to hot and coat lightly with oil.

4

Roll each piece of dough out into a disc about 20cm in diameter.

5

Fry each chapatti until brown spots appear, about 30 seconds on each side. Cover the cooked chapatti to keep warm.

6

Serve with salsa.

SALSA
Slice, seed and cube 2 tomatoes and mix together with 2 sliced spring onions, 45ml (3 tbsp) fresh chopped coriander and 45ml (3 tbsp) olive oil. Serve with chapatti.
