Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cassava flour
- 1 teaspoon Ajwain seeds
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cassava flour, ajwain seeds, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Create a well in the center of the flour mixture. Gradually add the warm water, a little at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a soft dough begins to form.
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the dough and knead by hand in the bowl for about 5 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a small ball.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium heat. While the skillet is heating, take one dough ball and roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking, until it is about 6 inches in diameter.
Lightly brush the skillet with a small amount of olive oil. Place the rolled-out dough onto the hot skillet.
Cook the chapati for about 2 minutes on one side, until it begins to puff up and golden brown spots appear on the surface.
Flip the chapati using a spatula and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, pressing gently to ensure it cooks evenly.
Remove the chapati from the skillet and cover it with a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm and enjoy your Whole30 Ajwain Chapati with your favorite compliant dish!
