Ingredients
  

  • ½ c | 70g plain wholemeal flour
  • ½ c | 60g plain flour
  • pinch salt
  • ⅓ c | 80ml hot water not boiling water
  • 1½ tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Mix the flours with the salt in a roomy mixing bowl.
  • Add the hot water and olive oil and give a quick stir.
  • Knead for 5-10 minutes, until smooth, then divide the dough into 6 even sized pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
  • Cover with a tea towel and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Roll each ball out on  lightly floured surface until very thin. If the chapati sticks to the surface, dust with a little more flour.
  • When ready to cook, heat a non-stick frying pan until hot over a medium heat.
  • Cook for 30 seconds on each side, until puffed up and starting to turn golden brown in spots.
  • Keep warm under a medium grill whilst you cook the other chapatis.
  • Best served straight away.
