1. Mix flours, salt, and butter and add just enough water to make a firm dough, somewhat like a biscuit dough.
2. Knead for 10-15 minutes - the more the dough is kneaded, the lighter the bread will be.
3. Shape the dough into a ball, cover with a sheet of plastic and let it rest for at least 1 hour.
4. If left to rest overnight in the refrigerator, the finished bread will be even lighter.
5. When ready to bake, take a small piece of dough about the size of a golf ball, or a bit smaller.
6. On a lightly floured board, roll the dough into a thin circle, about 5 inches in diameter.
7. Repeat with all the dough. Heat a griddle or heavy-bottomed iron skillet until it is very hot (you will notice the smoke rising from it).
8. Place the rolled out chapati on the griddle and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, depending on how thin you have rolled it.
9. Using a pair of kitchen tongs, you can lift the chapati to see if the underside has turned a golden brown.
10. Flip, and cook the other side about 1 minute.
11. As they are cooked, store the chapatis on a towel in a warm covered container until ready to serve.
12. Serve as soon as the last chapati is baked.
13. NOTE: In India breads sometimes are baked in the fiery clay tandoor, where they develop brown spots and bubbles.
14. To achieve a similar effect at home, you can use tongs to hold each chapati over a hot gas flame until it puffs like a little balloon.
