For this preparation you will need:
Whole wheat flour -One cup
Cumin pdr-1/4 Tsp
Red chilly pdr-1/4 Tsp
Coriander pdr-1/8 Tsp
Finely chopped garlic-1/4 cup or use 2 garlic cloves
Finely chopped spring onions-1Cup
Finely chopped onions- 1Cup
Methi leaves- 1Cup-Coarsely chopped
Salt to taste
Veg/olive oil-2 Tbsp( For mixing the flour)
Water 100 ml-Warm temperature
Step 1
Add the whole wheat flour,chopped spring onions,chopped onions,garlic& methi leaves in a large mixing bowl.Make a well in the center,add the pdrs and salt.Add 1 Tbsp oil to the well and add 100ml warm water,knead and add some more warm water if need be to get the right consistency.The dough must be soft sans cracks.
Step 2
Once the dough is kneaded well,allow to sit on the counter for 10-15 mins.Wrap in a damp muslin cloth or a damp kitchen paper.This will prevent the dough from hardening.
After 15 mins,remove cloth and and make a long cylindrical shaped dough.Then make small balls from the dough and set aside.
After you have made your desired number of balls,roll out on a wooden slab,by dusting some wheat flour.
Make chapatis on the pan.Serve hot with a little ghee greased on the top of each chapati for additional taste.Do not fret using ghee as ghee used in moderate quantity improves skin texture and over all well being.
Store the remaining dough in an air tight box for further use.
