chapatis!


If you're like me and my little family, the thought of a whole month with no breads is not a happy one. We do have the local flour, but yeast is outside the 100-mile zone (although I've heard you can make your own? Must learn more about this). This afternoon I tried making chapatis - an Indian flatbread similar to roti - and it was both ridiculously simple and satisfyingly bready. All it takes is flour, water, and a little salt*, which is optional. We've now got a stock of them in the freezer, ready to grab when desperation strikes, and I have a feeling I'll be refilling often. I really recommend it!



1 day down!

  1. OK, I'm going to sound pathetic since the ingredients are so simple, but do you have the recipe for proportions on these tasty lookin' chapatis? :D Thanks in advance!

  2. Not pathetic at all! I just didn't post the actual recipe 'cause I wasn't sure about copyright laws. I'll hook you up.
