CHAPATI (EAST AFRICAN BREAD)
This is taken from the Congo Cookbook. Unleavened bread that is very popular and is served with many curry dishes. I am estimating the servings as I have not made this yet. It looks good and simple so I do plan on making.

Steps:
- All ingredients should be allowed to come to room temperature if they have been in the refrigerator.
- Mix flour and salt in a bowl.
- Slowly mix in enough water to make a thick dough.
- Mix in one spoonful oil.
- Knead dough on a cool surface for a few minutes, adding a few spoonfuls of dry flour.
- Return dough to the bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rest for thirty minutes.
- Lightly grease (with cooking oil) and pre-heat a skillet or griddle.
- Divide the dough into orange-sized balls. Flatten them into six-inch circles. Fry them in the skillet or griddle, turning once, until each side is golden brown and spotted.
- Place in warm oven as they are done and serve with butter and any curry, stew or soup dish.
