- Now add warm water little by little and knead it for 3 – 4 minutes to form a soft and smooth dough like that of regular chapati.

How to cook mix flour chapati

- Dust the working surface with flour. Divide the dough into eight equal portions.
- Take one portion and roll it to a 6-inch diameter circle like a tortilla or any other roti. (check tips)

Notes
- If you find it difficult to roll on the working surface, then grease the parchment paper and roll or spread using your fingers. Lift the entire rolled chapati with the sheet, flip it on the pan, and peel the sheet. Ragi roti is done the same way. You can check the video on making ragi roti.
- To make it flavorful, you can also add chopped onions, green chilies, coriander leaves, and cumin seeds while making the dough.
- These roti or chapati taste the best when served fresh.

Mixed flour chapati
Chapati, also called roti, is an unleavened flatbread popular and a staple in India and prepared with wheat flour, also known as atta. Today, we will be making next-level chapati using a combination of flours (multi-grain atta).
Here is a list of flours that you can add along with the traditional wheat or atta to make the chapati. I add all 1:1 ratio to get a soft chapati
- Oat flour - check out our popular oats chapati recipe.
- Besan - Gives nutty aroma.
- Ragi flour - you can check our South Indian style ragi rotti.
- Soybean flour - I have a simple flatbread made using only soybean flour.
- Bajar (Black millet)
- Jowar (White millet)

I have tried making chapati with multi grain atta from store. For some reason, I dont like it that much. I love the fact that you have made your own mixed flour at home. I bet the chapati would have been delicious. A must try recipe 🙂
