Flour

Maida / Atta

Book weighs in g/kg; no spoon conversion. King Arthur cup weights are ~120 g for either flour.

Instead of Flour

Plain flour
Use the same weight; it is the closest everyday swap for generic flour.
Whole wheat flour
Use the same weight, add 1–2 tbsp extra water, and rest the dough 10–15 minutes. The result is denser.
Rice flour
Use 90% of the weight. It is gluten-free and gives a crisp, slightly gritty texture; best for coatings rather than bread.
