Easy Chapatis (Flatbread)

Directions

1. 1
   In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a dough blade, process flour, salt and water until the mixture forms a ball.
2. 2
   Turn dough onto a floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes.
3. 3
   Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap.
4. 4
   Let dough rest for 30 to 90 minutes.
5. 5
   Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
6. 6
   Divide dough into 8 equal pieces.
7. 7
   Roll each piece into a 7-inch (18-cm) circle.
8. 8
   Spray a cast-iron griddle or skillet once with cooking spray and set over medium-low heat.
9. 9
   Cook a chapati for 1 minute.
10. 10
    Turn over and cook 5 minutes on second side or until chapati bubbles up.
11. 11
    Flip back to first side and cook for 5 minutes.
12. 12
    Then place the cooked chapati over the open flame (or on the coils) of a separate burner for a few seconds to brown, as you would a tortilla.
13. 13
    Keep cooked chapatis warm in the oven while you cook the remaining dough.
14. 14
    If you prefer a crispy, cracker-like texture, increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
15. 15
    Bake cooked chapatis, on a pizza stone if possible, until crispy, about 10 minutes.
