So I've been a fan of chapatis since I was a child and eaten all types including nans etc.
And I know a lady who makes the softest best chapatis ever - crown still goes to her. And at this point is where she does something different..

Knead the dough well again and divide it into egg-sized balls.
Instead of this part, she takes the dough, kneads it well again and flattens it all out into a giant Chapati.
Spreads oil on top and cuts out strips; then rolls each strip to form the egg-sized balls. That's what I've observed. Come to think of it, she seems to use more oil than water...
