CHILA / SOFT RICE FLATBREAD

Ingredients:  

1 kilo rice {3 and Half mug cups rice}, the thicker variety the better, we need rice to be able to mash up nicely

3/4 coconut cream

About 2 and 1/2 to 3 cups hot boiled water {for melting creamed coconut}. Bear in mind, you may not use all the melted coconut liquid

1 and 1/2 cups sugar or to taste

1 sachet {7g} and 1 teaspoon of instant yeast

1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder

3 white eggs {no yolks}

Oil for frying

 

Method:

A} Soak rice over night

B} Wash the soaked rice and drain the water away.

C} Put the rice and all the ingredients in a blender

D} Blend till the mixture is crushed into very tiny pieces.

E} Put the mixture in a bowl and let it puff up or almost double in size.

F} Once puffed up or almost doubled in size, on medium heat, take a small non stick pan and put a little bit of ghee

G} Put a whole ladle full of mixture into the pan

H} Cover it with a lid just for few minutes, about 2 to 3 minutes. Make sure not to burn the bread.

I} Place it on the plate and cover it with a cling film; this will make the bread softer.

J} Repeat this with the remaining mixture.

Enjoy!
