Spiced Potato Chapati Bread

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spiced Potato Chapati Bread.

1. Step 1

   Start by gathering your ingredients in a mixing bowl.

2. Step 2

   Combine the creamy mashed potatoes with a pinch of salt, a dash of cayenne pepper for a little kick, a sprinkle of ground turmeric for color, and a handful of freshly chopped cilantro.

3. Step 3

   Drizzle in three tablespoons of vegetable oil and mix everything together until it’s beautifully blended.

4. Step 4

   Next, gradually introduce whole wheat flour to your potato mixture, kneading it gently until you achieve a dough that’s stiff yet pliable.

5. Step 5

   If you find the dough getting too firm, don’t hesitate to add a few drops of water to bring it back to the right consistency.

6. Step 6

   Once your dough is ready, transfer it to a bowl that you’ve lightly oiled, turning it to ensure it’s coated.

7. Step 7

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest for about ten minutes—this little break helps the flavors meld and the dough to relax.

8. Step 8

   While your dough is resting, preheat a nonstick griddle over medium heat, getting it nice and warm for cooking.

9. Step 9

   After the dough has rested, divide it into eight equal portions, rolling each piece into a ball.

10. Step 10

    On a lightly floured surface, gently roll each ball out to about a quarter-inch thick, creating your chapatis.

11. Step 11

    Now, it’s time to cook! Place the rolled chapatis on the hot griddle, working in batches.

12. Step 12

    For each side, you can use up to a teaspoon of oil for frying.

13. Step 13

    Cook them until you see lovely brown spots forming and the dough is cooked through, which should take about one to two minutes per side.

14. Step 14

    Once they’re perfectly cooked, brush each chapati with melted butter for that extra touch of flavor and serve them hot.

15. Step 15

    Enjoy the delightful aroma and taste of your homemade chapatis, perfect for any meal!.
