Apparently, warm water isn't essential.

Try not to make the chapatis just after making the dough. Wait for a while.

Make sure you heat the pan at a high temperature first, then you can lower the heat when you put the chaptis on.

Also, make sure your dough is sticky, and when you are rolling out your chapati you have a coating of dry flour on your surface.

When your chapati is on the pan, you use something along the lines of a kitchen towel to press it around the sides. This makes the chapati to make that balloon shape and puff out.

You could also glaze the chapati with butter if you like, although a lot of people don't tend to do this.

Hope this helps!

Thanks a lot Sonny, I will follow those instructions and let you know on here how i get on next time which will probably be early next week. That's an interesting point about pressing the sides down as I couldn't quite see exactly where Manjula was pressing down in the video although her's did puff up nicely. The more sticky dough is something that I thought I needed to do too.
