My Favourite Chapati Recipes
Chapati is also spelled as chapatti,
chappati, chapathi, or chappathi, also known as roti, safati, shabaati, phulka
and (in the Maldives) roshi. Chapatis
are made of whole-wheat flour known as atta, mixed into dough with water,
edible oil and optional salt in a mixing utensil called a parat, and is cooked
on a tava (flat skillet). Chapati dough is typically prepared with flour, salt
and water, kneaded with the knuckles of the hand made into a fist and left to
proof for at least 10 or 15 minutes to an hour for the gluten in the dough to
develop. After proofing, the dough becomes softer and more pliable. Small
portions of the dough are pinched off and formed into round balls that are
pressed between the two palms to form discs which are then dipped into flour
and rolled out on a circular rolling board (a chakla), using a rolling pin
known as a velan or belan, into a flat disc.The rolled-out dough is then
thrown on the preheated dry tava and cooked on both sides.

Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies
I saw these delicious cookies and I knew I had to try them. They looked so fluffy and soft that I feel in love with them. I love anything red velvet so you do not have to sell me twice about these sweet morsels. Perfect for Valentines' Day, Christmas or any holiday that your heart is set on. As far as cookies go, I think this is my favourite, coming a close second to chocolate cookies, that reminds me, this year I have to make them! I always enjoy the store bought ones but it is time I filled my house with the sweet aroma of baking cookies. I cannot wait, especially now that I have moved into my own house, so excited to try out the recipes I have been postponing for too long. I even have some recipes that are in draft form for 2018! What? All 68 of them, just waiting to be created. This beginning of the year will be the time to finish any left over recipes on my blog and develop new ones. Meanwhile, enjoy the video that I made on my YOU TUBE channel below. Leave a comment and let me know what you love about red velvet cookies.
