Some individuals may be allergic to wheat or other grains that contain gluten, such as barley and rye.

Repeat the above step placing each disc on some parchment paper until 4-6 discs (depending on size) are made. Shake off any excess dust if needed

Just like bread, you can serve chapati with pretty much anything. Traditional choices are curry, chutney, sagaloo, legumes, and steamed greens. If you’re looking for a foolproof gluten-free chapati recipe that works every time, try using a combination of flours such as brown rice, tapioca, and sweet rice flour. These flours have great binding properties and help to create a soft and pliable dough. If you’ve already cooked them, you can reheat them in a microwave or air fryer. It should only take a few seconds.

If you don’t know what psyllium husk powder is then read this article: Psyllium: What on Earth is it? I haven’t specified the exact amount of water. Instead I urge you to add the amount required to form a dough. If you add too much don’t worry, you just need to add a little more flour. I don’t want to mother you here. I want you to get a feel for working with gluten free flours yourself.

Can I make your gluten free chapati flour?

Another great attribute about this gluten free roti flour is its lighter color and texture. This makes it ideal for making foods that are neutral in color, like chapatis and naans. My simple recipe for gluten free roti, or chapati, is made with my wholegrain gluten free atta (or flour blend). They are made with just five ingredients. Roll each piece into a ball then flatten, making it as round as you can. For best results, use a rolling pin. Chapati is unleavened bread, so you don't use any yeast or baking powder. This is one of the main differences between chapati and naan, which is leavened - more about this below. Is chapati like naan? Once the psyllium husk powder has been mixed with the flour the salt is added (if using) along with the oil and water.

Cassava flour is naturally doughy when combined with water. In other words, it acts as a pseudo "gluten" the protein in flour that creates that binding element. The dough is rolled very thinly (unlike a naan bread) and then either grilled or cooked in tandoor. These traditional Indian breads are so popular that they are generally eaten with every meal. Which means the Caribbean roti is leavened (meaning rising agents are used) whereas this isn't used in the Indian version. Yes, amaranth flour does have an earthy taste. But the taste that lingers in your mouth is of soy flour not amaranth. You could always replace half of amaranth with brown rice flour. If you want more stability in your dough use 1/4 tsp xanthum gum for 1 cup of Gluten free chapati flour. I'm going to show you how to make sada roti, which is the most basic and beginner friendly roti that you will find.

Add the water to the flour in small amounts to bind it – keep in mind that you are adding milk later, so be careful not to make the dough too wet Since plant-based ingredients that don’t have gluten are not viscous, it’s necessary to use many gluten-free plant-based ingredients to develop flour that’s suitable for making decent dough that will bind when added to water and kneaded. There is no point in making chapatis or naans if the dough doesn’t bind. Cassava is NOT the same as TAPIOCA STARCH. They are NOT interchangeable, they have been listed separately because they play different roles (see my post, for details). Parathas are also flatbreads but made differently. The shape of a paratha can be round, triangular or a paratha can be flavoured or can be stuffed with vegetables, cheese, eggs, etc; whereas a chapati is a much simpler bread. Brown rice flour - this helps to offset any gumminess from using both tapioca starch and cassava flour. Without this the roti would be very chewy and gummy, so do not skip this ingredient!!
