Homemade Soft Bread

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, yeast and sugar. Mix well. Now add egg and oil. Mix well. Pour the water little by little and start kneading. Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic.

Cover the dough and let rise in a warm place 30 minutes.

Now take the dough and make rounds balls, about the size of a lime. Cover the balls and let rest for about 10 minutes.

Take a ball and roll it with rolling pin. Roll each ball into thin disks about 6 inches in diameter.

Heat the griddle on medium heat. Spread a little oil or butter on the griddle. Place the bread on it. When you see small bubbles on it, turn it over.

Now remove from heat using tongs. Place it on a metal frame as in the photo (or a rack if you don’t have a metal frame) and and put it in direct fire (high flame). It will puff up. Let it balloon. When brown, take it off the flame.

Serve hot with curry. Enjoy.
