Directions:
All ingredients should be allowed to come to room temperature if they have been in the refrigerator.
Mix flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Slowly mix in enough water to make a thick dough.
Mix in one spoonful oil.

Knead dough on a cool surface for a few minutes, adding a few spoonfuls of dry flour.

Return dough to the bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rest for thirty minutes.

Lightly grease (with cooking oil) and pre-heat a skillet or griddle.

Divide the dough into orange-sized balls. Flatten them into six-inch circles by rolling or by patting from hand to hand, rotating each time.

Fry them in the skillet or griddle, turning once, until each side is golden brown and spotted.
Place in warm oven as they are done and serve with butter and any curry, stew or soup dish.

Another recipe from Andrea Vedell-Agol. Her husband, Maruice, could eat 6 or 8 of these at a time! He loved chapatis!
