Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour and salt. Use a wooden spoon to stir in the olive oil and enough water to make a soft dough that is elastic but not sticky. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until it is smooth. Divide into 10 parts, or less if you want bigger breads. Roll each piece into a ball. Let rest for a few minutes.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat until hot, and grease lightly. On a lightly floured surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll out the balls of dough until very thin like a tortilla. When the pan starts smoking, put a chapati on it. Cook until the underside has brown spots, about 30 seconds, then flip and cook on the other side. Continue with remaining dough.

CHAPATI (EAST AFRICAN BREAD)
Adopted from Indian cuisine, chapatis have been a part of East African cuisine for centuries. The East African recipe is slightly different from its Indian counterpart. This bread accompanies African soups and stews well. Preparation is minimal, making this a great choice for cooks that are in a pinch.

CHAPATIS
Making chapatis can be a very relaxing thing to do. In quite a short time you can produce eight or 10 breads, each one turning out a little bit different from the others, but all of them attractive, nutritious and good. We've grown so accustomed to making chapatis that they now feel almost like a convenience food, a household staple of the best kind.

Steps:
- You will need a medium-sized bowl, a rolling pin, a castiron griddle or heavy skillet, and a small cotton cloth or a paper towel.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the salt and the flour. Make a well in the middle and add just less than 1 cup warm water. Mix with your hand or with a spoon until you can gather it together into a dough (depending on the condition of your flour, you may need a little extra water or a little extra flour to make a kneadable dough). Turn out onto a lightly floured bread board and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth or a plastic wrap and let stand for 30 minutes or for up to 2 hours. The longer the dough stands, the more digestible the breads.
- Divide the dough into 8 pieces and flatten each with lightly floured fingers. Continue flattening with a rolling pin until each piece is 8 inches in diameter. Once you have started rolling, roll out each bread without flipping it over. To keep the bread from sticking to your bread board, make sure that the bread is lightly floured underneath. Cover the breads with the damp towel or plastic wrap as you roll out others (make sure not to stack the rolled out breads; if you don't have enough counterspace for the breads, roll out just a few and begin cooking, rolling out the others as the breads cook).
- Heat a castiron griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. When the griddle is hot, place a chapati on the griddle, top side of the bread down first. Let cook for only 10 seconds and then gently flip to the second side. Cook on the second side until small bubbles begin to form, approximately one minute. Turn the chapati back to the first side and finish cooking (another minute approximately). At this stage, a perfect chapati will start to balloon. This process can be helped along by gently pressing on the bread. The bread is hot, so we find the easiest method is to use a small cotton cloth or a paper towel wadded up to protect your finger tips. Gently press down on a large bubble forcing the bubble to extend itself wider. If the bread starts to burn on the bottom before it has ballooned, move the bread (with the help of your paper towel) across the skillet, dislodging it from the point at which it is beginning to burn.
- When you are satisfied with your chapati, remove it and wrap in a clean towel. Continue to cook the other breads, stacking each as it is finished on top of the others.
TRADITIONAL CHAPATIS
Traditional chapatis are made every day in India and contain only two ingredients, the flour and the water. This makes them very simple to make and very healthy too.

Steps:
- Add the water to the flour a little at a time, kneading as you go until you have a soft, elastic dough.
- Sprinkle a little flour onto a flat surface or board.
- Divide the dough into 8 and shape each piece into ball.
- Flatten the balls slightly then place one on the floured surface and roll out into a flat disc approximately 15cm/6inches in diameter.
- Repeat with the other 7.
- Heat a shallow frying pan.
- Lay a disc onto the hot pan and leave for 20 to 30 seconds until the surface is bubbly.
- Flip over and cook the other side for 10 to 15 seconds.
- As soon as brown spots appear on the underside it is done.
- Repeat with the other breads.
- Cooks tip: The longer you knead the chapati dough the softer the breads will be.

- Make the dough. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Pour in the water and stir until dough forms.
- Infuse with oil. Poke holes in the dough and pour a little oil in the holes. Cover the dough with a towel and let it rest in a warm spot for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
- Knead and divide: After the dough has sat for an hour or so, knead it for a minute or two in the bowl to incorporate the oil into the dough. Then divide the dough into 8 equal sections.
- Roll out the dough. Take a section of dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface. You will probably have to flip it over a few times. Make sure it doesn't get stuck to your rolling surface.
