I love traditional Indian flat breads (chapati). However, you need to cook them before eating and not really storable. They tend to harden after a few hours and can’t be stored overnight. This recipe captures the taste of earthly flatbreads but you can make and keep in the fridge for up to a week. Simply heat in the microwave for 25 seconds with a damp paper towel. Alternatively, heat in a non-stick pan with vegan butter, or the oven at 180°F.
Equipments
I like to use a stand mixer for this recipe. You can certainly knead by hand, but I find that it will take double the time kneading. I also like to use a thermometer to check that the liquid temperature does not get too hot or it will kill the yeast.
