Chapatis (Indian Bread)

2 cups flour, preferably whole wheat
Yogurt or milk (to desired stiffness)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Serving size varies
Mix salt and flour with enough liquid (oil and milk or yogurt) to make stiff dough. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes. Pull off golf ball-size chunks of dough and roll them as thin as possible. (Dip the ball in flour for easier rolling) Cook in a hot, dry cast iron skillet or on a grill until each one is puffy and brown on one side. Turn and cook the other side. Serve as a side dish to the Seafood Curry or Tikka Masala.
