• 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients.

2. 2

   Mix whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt in a large bowl. Use a wooden spoon to stir in water and oil. Mix until a soft, elastic dough forms and add more water, if needed.

3. 3

   Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth.

   Divide dough into 10 equal portions, or less if you want larger chapatis. Roll each piece into a ball and let rest for a few minutes.

5. 5

   Heat a lightly greased skillet over medium heat. Use a rolling pin to roll dough balls out on a lightly floured surface until very thin.

6. 6

   When the skillet starts to smoke, place a chapati in it. Cook until bottom has brown spots, about 30 seconds, then flip and cook 30 seconds more.

7. 7

   Repeat to cook remaining chapatis.
