         Title: Chapati (Indian Flat Bread)   
    Categories: Breads, Indian   
         Yield: 2 Servings   
       
         1 c  Whole wheat flour   
       1/4 ts Salt   
         1 tb Ghee   
       1/3 c  Water   
       
     To the flour add salt and ghee and mix well. Add sufficient water to   
     make a soft, pliable dough. Knead until elastic. Allow to rest   
          15    minutes or more.   
        
     Divide dough into 8 equal parts. Roll into small balls and, using a   
     rolling pin, flatten out into circles about 4 to 5" in diameter.   
     Before rolling into circles, flatten between hands and dip in flour   
     to prevent sticking to rolling pin. With each chapati, cook one side   
     on a hot frying pan, then turn and half cook the other side. Finally   
     hold it directly over a burner flame and allow to puff. Tongs can be   
     used to old the chapati. There is a special implement for this sold   
     in Indian shops. Keep chapatis covered as others are being made.   
     Brush upper side with ghee to prevent sticking together in the stack.   
     Chapati and parathas is often made for dinner, served with potato   
     curries or dals.
