Add the chapati flour to a bowl. Add the sea salt and mix briefly. Slowly add the water until a dough forms. Add a touch of oil and mix once more.

Lightly oil a work surface and knead the chapati dough for around 5 minutes until soft.

Lightly oil a bowl, add the chapati dough, cover with a clean damp cloth and set aside for 30 minutes.

Heat a dry flat frying pan or tava pan over a medium heat. Divide the dough into equal pieces (this recipe makes enough dough for 3 large or 6 small chapatis). Roll out each piece of dough and place carefully on the hot pan.

Allow the chapati to cook for around 30 seconds on the first side, or until small craters or bubbles begin to appear. Carefully flip the chapati and cook for a further 30 seconds. Flip once more and the chapati should begin to puff up (you can assist the chapati by pressing down gently with a clean tea towel or using a blowtorch as shown in the video).

Brush the cooked chapati with ghee, butter or vegetable oil and set aside. Repeat the process until all of the chapati breads are cooked.

Serve the warm chapatis with your favourite curry dishes!
