Avocado Chapati (Indian Bread) Avocado Chapati (Indian Bread)
Avocado is known as Butterfruit in India. Simple and quick chapati (roti – round flat bread) recipe enhanced with use of avocados. Avocados are not easily available in India, hence this very heart health ingredient is seldom used in Indian recipes. Avocados are loaded with heart healthy fats, which are good for controlling baad cholesterol. In this recipe mashed avocados are added to the flour during the kneading process. In this manner, rotis get a unique avocado flavor and all the fat from avocado make them super soft. So this is a great way to add avocados to your family’s daily diet without any extra effort.Medium avocados are recommended for this recipe. A medium avocado averages about 5 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.

Chapati with Atta (Whole Wheat Flour) Chapati with Atta (Whole Wheat Flour)
In Southern India, curry is eaten with rice, and in Northern India, it's eaten with naan. But throughout the country, chapati is eaten at home! They can be eaten on their own, too!!Let the dough rest a while after kneading.If there is any leftover dough, divide it into single serving amounts, wrap in plastic wrap, seal in a freezer bag, then freeze them to be able to bake up some chapati any time!

Flat Indian Bread: Chapati Flat Indian Bread: Chapati
At first I could only make tough, not very good chapatis. But by adding more water, kneading the dough well, and letting it rest, I was able to make tender and delicious ones.The amount of water indicated is a guideline only. Please adjust the amount depending on the dough. If the dough is too hard, the chapatis will be hard and dry and not very good. Even if the dough seems too soft, it will improve after resting it, so don't worry. Recipe by hinata -

We love these with homemade curry. They are so simple to make, just knead the dough and fry, that it's a mystery how they always turn out so well.These always turn out nice and crispy. You're really suppose to use whole wheat flour but I can't get it around here (I live in the country, so I use white flour. Recipe by patisier -
