Ragi Wheat Chapati - How to make Ragi Chapati

These days I have been preparing chapati's frequently for dinner. So, my son would love to have variations in it like Aloo Paratha, Cheese stuffed chapati, panner paratha, raddish paratha (will share the recipe soon) etc. And to this list got added this Ragi Wheat chapati. Ragi flour makes you feel filling too. Try this simple recipe!

Ingredients
Wholewheat flour/ atta - 1 cup Ragi flour - 1/2 cup
Oil - 1 tsp Salt - little to taste Warm water - 1/2 cup or less to kneed dough
Method




Take a wide bow and add the flour, salt and oil. Mix well.
To this slowly add water little by little and form a pilable dough. The dough should be really soft, only then you will get soft chapathi's. 
Keep covered with a wet cloth for 10-15 mins. Then divide it to equal size balls and flatten using a rolling pin into chapatis. 
On a hot skillet add the rolled chapati dough and cook on both sides until done. Refer to my Chapati post for more tips for soft chapatis. Serve hot with subji of your choice.

Cheese Stuffed Chapathi - Cheese Chapathi

This Cheese stuffed chapathi is another kid friendly dish. You can prepare this for breakfast or snacks or even for the dinner time. I had not stuffed too much cheese as I prepared this for my kids dinner time. Adjust the cheese stuffing as per your kids taste buds. Now to the recipe...

Ingredients

Whole wheat flour - 1 cup
Warm water - 1/2 cup approximately
Oil - 1 tsp
Salt as per taste
Shredded Cheese - 1/2 cup. Adjust as per your taste and need.

Method

• Knead the dough as you will do for regular Chapathi's. Click here for step by step instructions. Cover the dough and set aside.
• If you are using cheese cubes, grate them and keep ready.
• Divide the kneaded dough into equal parts and roll them into smooth balls. We need 2 balls for making one stuffed chapathi.
• Take 2 balls and roll them separately as thin as possible. Spread about one tablespoon of cheese on one layer, cover with the other layer and gently press through the edges so that they get sealed.
• Now, heat the skillet, cook the stuffed chapathi both sides on medium flame. I did not add any oil/ghee. You can also add if you prefer. Serve with tomato ketchup!!
