Kat's Paratha Bread
1 Cup Chapati flour
Extra flour
pinch salt and pepper
2 tablespoons natural yoghurt
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
warm water
Vegetable oil
Mix the ingredients (except water and veg oil) in a bowl. Add water a little
at a time until you get a pliable dough which is not runny. If you overdo the
water just add more flour, you are looking for something like the consistency of
play dough. Now flour your hands well, pour a little over the dough too and
knead well for 5 minutes. Regularly reflour your hands as needed to prevent the
dough sticking. Break the dough into 2 pieces and roll each flat and thin using
a well floured rolling pin on a floured surface. Now fold the rolled out dough
into a quarter circle, roll into a ball and roll flat again and repeat this 4
more times. Heat a heavy pan with about half an inch deep in oil to a medium
heat and cook the parathas for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they bubble
and turn golden. Serve immediately or cover in foil and keep in a warm oven
until required
