Soft Chapati (Indian flatbread)

Chapati is a traditional Indian flatbread made from whole-wheat flour (atta), water, and oil, which is then cooked over a hot tava (flat skillet). The chapatis are soft, simple, and easy to make and is perfect to serve alongside curries (such as our chickpea curry, chicken curry), dals, or other main dishes. Chapatis has been a staple in Indian households for centuries, and have spread to Central Asia, East Africa, and the Caribbean, where it remains part of their everyday diet.
