Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Ragi flour (finger millet flour)
• 0.5 cup Barley flour
• 0.25 cup Quinoa flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0 Flour for dusting

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, ragi flour, barley flour, and quinoa flour.

Step 2

Add the salt and mix well to ensure it is evenly distributed among the flours.

Step 3

Gradually add water little by little to the flour mixture, using your hands to mix and knead until it forms a smooth, soft dough. You may need to adjust the amount of water slightly depending on the flours.

Step 4

Once the dough is combined, add the olive oil and knead it into the dough for about 5 minutes. This will make the dough smoother.

Step 5

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15 minutes. This helps the dough to become more pliable.

Step 6

After resting, divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape them into smooth balls.

Step 7

Lightly flour a clean surface. Take one dough ball, flatten it slightly, and roll it out into a circle about 6-7 inches in diameter. Keep the remaining dough balls covered to prevent them from drying out.

Step 8

Preheat a tawa or flat skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the rolled out chapati onto the tawa.

Step 9

Cook for about 30 seconds or until you see small bubbles appearing on the surface. Flip the chapati over.

Step 10

Cook the other side for about 30-45 seconds or until you see brown spots. Flip it again and cook for another 15 seconds while pressing it gently with a spatula to puff up the chapati.

Step 11

Remove from the tawa and set aside in a covered container to keep it warm. Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.

Step 12

Serve warm mixed grain chapatis with your favorite curry or side dish.
