Chapathis (Flour tortillas)

Kristen Beckstead

3 cups flour

1 cup water

1 tsp salt

2 TBS canola oil

Mix flour and water, salt, and oil, adjusting the quantity of water to make a stiff dough. Knead the dough until smooth & elastic. Pinch off the dough into 15 balls. Flatten each ball and roll out on a well floured surface into a circle 7 inches in diameter. Heat heavy griddle ( Teflon works well) On the griddle, these blow up like little balloons with a little pressure from a spoon or spatula. If bubbles do not appear they will still be good, bubbling only helps cook them nicely. After slight browning, turn to the other side.
