Before you start cooking there are two things you should know;
# How you knead your dough determines everything.
# The heat you use should be medium not too low nor too high.

Ingredients.

# All purpose wheat flour.
# Sugar or salt (depends on the taste you want).
# Warm water.
# Margarine (optional).
# Cooking oil.

Instructions.

# Add 3 cups of flour in a clean bowl.
# Add salt or sugar (or both) in the bowl then mix them until they are finely mixed.
# Add one and half cups of warm water into the bowl and mix them well for 10mins.
# Continue kneading the dough for at least 15mins until it becomes non-sticky on your hands.
# On top of the dough add 3tbsp of cooking oil and keep kneading until it is super soft. Cover the dough and leave it up to 40 - 50 mins for it to be extra soft. ( You can use a dry cloth or a plastic paper bag).
# After the minutes are over, put your dough in a dry place and roll it making a big round circle. Smear some cooking oil on top of it and cut it in 12 equal parts. Then, create a coil like balls with each part you made from the dough.
# Using your rolling pin, roll your coil like balls into a round shape again.
# On a heated pan, place your circular chapati. Heat both sides to your liking color and place it on a dry bowl. ( on a medium heat).
# Note: After you are done cooking cover the chapati with an aluminum foil to avoid them getting hard.
Finally enjoy your soft layered chapati with your favorite stew.
