We have a resident chef at Love Walk who is an expert in Indian cooking – and offered to teach a group of residents how to make and cook chapatis – to have with our curry one evening.
We mixed plain wheat flour and water – no other ingredients are needed – and let the flour absorb the water. The kneaded and rolled out the dough over and over until it was super smooth and elastic – before a final roll out and heated in a hot, nearly dry, pan.
It was a great activity for manual dexterity, and fun to do, and the results were absolutely delicious!
