Recipe

Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 15 mins Ready Time: 45 mins


• combine the mashed potatoes, salt, cayenne, turmeric, cilantro, and 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a bowl and mix well. add the whole wheat flour a little at a time, kneading the mixture until it forms a stiff but pliable dough. (if the dough becomes too stiff, add a few drops of water.) transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, turning to coat; cover with plastic and set aside for 10 minutes.
• preheat a nonstick griddle to medium heat.
• divide the dough into lemon-sized portions and roll them out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. fry the chapatis using up to 1 teaspoon of oil for each side. cook until brown spots have started to form on the bread and the dough is cooked through. brush with melted butter and serve hot.
