hi all,
If u really want a very very soft and tasy chappaties...use a little bit of soya flour(u can get it every where) and use little milk too while making the dough. Oil is not necessary. soya flour is very healthy full of protien...and hence u make a healthy chapathies.

Hi AJ,
Thank u soooo much for the tips. I tried using soya bean flour as us said....the chappati is just soft like cotton. I dono how to thank u...and moreover by adding this, there is no difference in the /or better taste of chappaties.
And moreover, I am happy that we are eating healthier and tastier chappaties than before.
My husband loved that chappati and he conveys his thanks to u.
THANKS AGAIN!

  You should only use very little of soya flour like say 1/10 portion of wheat flour and try to knead it very very very soft.Take time to knead it untill it becomes elastic in nature. While flattening the dough for roti, see to that u make it even( it should not be thicker in one side and thinner in another). one more, u can go for Golden Temple brand or Neerav (just my suggestion).
  If u do roti or chappati with the above steps, there is NO WAY that ur chappati will become hard.

  hi all I knead flour more and keep it fridge to use it everyday for 1 week or so. Do you think it is good if I keep it with milk adding to the knead.

  the best way to make soft chappitis is to put a little bit more water in the dough, not too much because it will be gooy, we use water and it comes out soft
