madatha chapatti

Madatha chapatti:


I don’t know English name of this madatha chapatti……..it is not regular chapatti and not even roti…..



Ingredients:

Atta : 2 cups.

Salt : ¼ tspn.

Milk : ¼ or ½ cup.

Ghee : ½ tspn.










Preparation:

Take one bowl, add salt and ghee to the milk and stir till the salt is dissolved.

salt+milk+ghee

Mix the flour in it.

Go slow with the water---Add it as you go along and only as you need.

Mix together by hand and kneed till a smooth dough is formed.

The finished dough must be smooth, after it is done, Add oil at this stage [it is optional].put a side for 10-15 mins to rest.

Now divide the dough into equal portions.

Take one ball in your hands and press the ball with your palms applying gentle pressure, till it forms a smooth without cracks.

Do this for all the portions.

Lightly coat one ball in dry flour -->doing this will prevent ball from sticking to the rolling surface.

Flatter the ball of dough -->to get it ready to roll .

Roll with circular motions --> till you have a circle.

Apply the oil/ghee on chapatti. Fold half  of the chapatti. And apply the oil and fold it again.

Lightly coat with dry flour on both sides of our rolling chapatti.

Rolled out chapatti. It must not be thin

Start cooking chapatti --> heat the pan on medium flame and put the rolled out chapatti on it to cook.

Cook till bubbles begin appear on the upper surface.

Apply the ½ tspn of oil.

Now flip the chapatti and cook other side till pale brown spots(raised bumps) begin t apper it.

Flip it several times and allow the next side to develop these pale brown spots.

Then….,

My madatha chapattis are ready to eat.
