Whether you're catering to dietary restrictions or exploring new flavors, these chapatis offer a versatile, healthy, and satisfying addition to your meals.
In a large mixing bowl, combine sorghum flour, brown rice flour, tapioca starch, psyllium husk powder, and salt, stirring to mix thoroughly.
Add warm water and olive oil to the dry mixture. Begin incorporating the liquids using a spoon or your hands until it forms a soft dough.
Knead the dough for about 3 to 4 minutes until it becomes smooth and pliable.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the psyllium husk to fully activate and bind the dough.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Using a rolling pin, flatten each dough ball into a thin round, about 6 inches in diameter. Sprinkle some tapioca starch on the rolling surface to prevent sticking if necessary.
Carefully place the rolled-out dough onto the preheated skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes until you see bubbles forming on the surface.
Flip the chapati and cook for another 1-2 minutes until light golden brown spots appear.
Once cooked, remove from the skillet and keep warm under a clean kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm chapatis with your favorite gluten-free accompaniments.
