Spinach stuffed Chapathis

This recipe is an experiment from leftovers of [ Aloo Palak & Chapathifrom. Spinach was never my favorite food, but this recipe turned out to be the best way for intake of spinach. Well, it turned out to be tasty as well. We had these Spinach chapatis with Alu fry and Raitha on the side and totally loved the combo. 

Ingredients:

Wheat flour - 1 1/2 cup
Water - 1/3 cup
Salt - 1 pinch
Yogurt - 2 tbsp
Oil - 1/2 tsp for each chapati
Spinach - 1 /2 cup [left over from Aloo Palak]

Procedure:
  1. Add all the ingredients except oil, in to a food processor and blend it in to a stiff dough. [or you can always use your hand]
  2. Let this dough sit for about 1 or 2 hours. 
  3. Knead the dough once again just before rolling the chapathis. 
  4. Divide the dough in to lemon size balls and roll them in to a round chapathi. (if you are trying for the first time then don't bother about the shape :))
  5. Heat a pan and place the rolled chapathi on to it. let if fry on one side and then turn it to the other side and let it fry for some more time. At this point the chapathi will start to puffup.
  6. Then add a little oil and fry it on both sides for some more time. 
Enjoy with some curry and raitha on the side!!!!!


Note: Incase you don't have any leftover spinach curry, just boil the spinach with very little water and salt. Blend it in to a fine paste and use it instead.
