Hello Everybody,

Here are some handy tips to make your chapattis soft , puffy and tasty.

* Take 2 cups of atta flour and add 1/2 tsp of salt, a pinch sugar and 2 tsp of any oil and mix all once.

* Add warm water or milk little by little to the atta flour and mix well till it forms like a ball.

* The more you knead the better chapattis you get.

* Knead for about 15 mins and last add 1 tsp of oil and make a soft shiny ball.

* Cover the dough and keep it for atleast 1/2 hr and be sure that the dough is not exposed to air.

* When you are about to make chapatti, knead once again and divide the dough into small balls.

* Press each ball by rubbing a little powder of maida over it and press till it is like a thin film, about an inch in diameter, in a round shape.

* Press each ball like this and place them in a spread newspaper separately without sticking to each other.

* Heat the tava to make rottis and make sure it is not over heated.

* Now put the pressed dough and when you see small bubbles in the dough turn it to the other side.

* Pour very little oil and when it starts to puff turn to the other side, and remove from the tava.

* Never turn the chapatti many times, this will make them hard. Also do not keep the flame very low, this will also make them hard.

* Do the same with all other pressed chapatti dough also.

* Once you take out from tawa, keep it in hot box covered. You can put a tissue at the bottom and at the top so that the moisture will not make the chapattis soft.

* Try not to expose the dough or the rolled chapatti to air for long time because the moisture in them will go and make the dough hard.

Following this way will make your chapattis soft, puffy and very tasty.Kiss
