Steps

1 hr 30 mins

1

Start off by measuring amount of flour you want add cinnamon to it.
2

Add about a cup of water in a jug. Add salt and sugar to taste as much as you desire.
3

Make a well in the middle of flour add all the milk and start kneading by bringing combining the flour together.
4

Keep adding the warm water in bits and continue kneading forming a soft dough.
5

Tranfer the dough in flat surface and continue kneading untill all flour is well combined together and your dough remains consistently soft. Blush off with some olive oil knead a bit and Let yourdough rest for about 30 minutes. This helps it to become softer.
6

Once the dough is well rested. Remove it and layer it flat on a smooth flat surface. Apply more oil on both sides and divide it equally.
7

Fold each piece to form a round beautiful pastry. Cover them to rest a little longer like 20 minutes.
8

When you start cooking roll the small pieces to form a well rounded shape. Cook it without oil and set aside. Repeat procedure for all others.
9

Start frying your chapatis. This is kinda fun. I fry two at a time. Place your chapatis on a pan. Apply oil on upper side then flip it over to cook. Repeat procedure on all sides untill they are well browned. Set them aside in a bowl that keeps them hot n soft.
