This is a cut down quantity for a small family meal.
1 cup plain flour (we used white but you can use wholemeal or a combo)
1/2 cup of warm water
Add 1/4 cup of the water to the flour and mix with your hand. Gradually add more of the water until you have a soft but non-sticky dough.
Knead for around 3 - 5 minutes (longer if you're making a bigger batch).
Let sit for about 15 - 30 minutes
Take small balls and roll out into almost paper thin discs using a rolling pin and extra flour as necessary.
From here, we deep fried them on 180% but a tad greasy. I prefer them dry fried in a non-stick pan on a med/high heat. The ones Saru did puffed up like pappadoms, mine sort of bubbled weakly but she said they taste the same and that practice makes perfect. It's all in the rolling out.
Options which I haven't actually tried but Saru assures me they also work:
Use a teaspoon of yoghurt instead of some of the water.
For naan bread, add yoghurt, an egg and some butter. Replace the plain flour with SR flour. (of course you'd need a fair bit more) Don't roll out as thinly. Best of luck
