CHAPATI PAKISTANI BREAD

2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp. dry yeast
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. oil
1 c. water


Mix flour, salt, and yeast in a bowl. Combine the oil and water and slowly mix it into the dry ingredients. Let rise for 1-2 hours. Makes one dozen balls out of the dough using more flour as needed to keep them from sticking. Cover them with a wet towel until ready to use to prevent them from drying out. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Roll each ball into a flat round Chapati as thin as possible, sprinkling with flour as you go the help prevent sticking. Bank one side of each Chapati becomes light brown, remove it with the tongs and keep it in a towel. These can be eaten plain or with butter and served with soup, meat, and vegetables.
