Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Wholewheat flour
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the wholewheat flour, almond flour, psyllium husk, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Drizzle the olive oil into the dry ingredients, and slowly pour in the warm water a little at a time.
Knead the mixture into a soft and pliable dough. Add more water (1 tablespoon at a time) if the dough feels dry, or sprinkle a little more wholewheat flour if it's too sticky.
Cover the dough with a damp kitchen towel and let it rest for 10 minutes. This allows the psyllium husk to absorb the moisture and helps the dough become easier to roll out.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
Dust a clean surface or rolling board with a little wholewheat flour and roll out each ball into a thin, circular disc about 6-7 inches in diameter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium heat. Once hot, place one rolled-out chapati on the skillet and cook for 30-45 seconds until bubbles start to appear.
Flip the chapati and cook the other side for another 30-45 seconds, pressing lightly with a spatula to ensure even cooking. You can cook it for a bit longer if you prefer slight charring or brown spots.
Repeat the process for the rest of the dough balls, using the same method.
Serve warm with your favorite low-carb curry, dip, or accompaniment.
