- Pick and clean the spinach leaves and coriander leaves. Chop them finely and set aside. Take a bowl and add in the greens, cumin seeds, turmeric, asafoetida, yogurt paste, salt and red chilli powder.
- Add in the flour. Dont add any water. The yogurt and the moisture from the greens should be enough. Add water only if its really dry. Make a very stiff dough.
- Cover the dough with a lid and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Divide the dough and make into small dough balls. Dust the dough balls in lot of flour.
- Roll it into thin sheets / rotis.
- In the mean time heat a griddle on medium flame. Flap the chapati between your hands to remove any excess flour, place it on the griddle. Wait for some small bubbles to form. When some small bubbles form, spread some oil on the chapati and flip.
- It should start to puff up. Press down on the edges of the chapati with your spatula and cook till both the sides are evenly brown. Serve hot.
