MY FAVOURITE CHAPATI RECIPES
Chapati is also spelled as chapatti,
chappati, chapathi, or chappathi, also known as roti, safati, shabaati, phulka
and (in the Maldives) roshi. Chapatis
are made of whole-wheat flour known as atta, mixed into dough with water,
edible oil and optional salt in a mixing utensil called a parat, and is cooked
on a tava (flat skillet). Chapati dough is typically prepared with flour, salt
and water, kneaded with the knuckles of the hand made into a fist and left to
proof for at least 10 or 15 minutes to an hour for the gluten in the dough to
develop. After proofing, the dough becomes softer and more pliable. Small
portions of the dough are pinched off and formed into round balls that are
pressed between the two palms to form discs which are then dipped into flour
and rolled out on a circular rolling board (a chakla), using a rolling pin
known as a velan or belan, into a flat disc.The rolled-out dough is then
thrown on the preheated dry tava and cooked on both sides.

CARROT CHAPATI
Want to add vibrant color and taste to your simple chapati, why not add grated carrots! Chapati as you know has always been my favorite meals to cook and I always try to find ways to make them more delicious. Whether it is wholewheat or all purpose flour, chapati is a delicious meal that can be served for breakfast, lunch or even dinner. The best part is that chapati is great for warming up to eat the next day. To ensure that they do not dry up and become dry and hard the next day, you need to cook them soft and this method I used guarantees you soft chapati that will keep soft even for 3 days!

5 WAYS TO GET SOFT LAYERED CHAPATI - PLEATS METHOD
My chapati journey has been a long one to say the least. As much as I love to cook chapati nowadays, I woke up one day at 2am in the morning and cooked chapati because I had a chapati craving, it has been a growth curve for me. Growing up in an African setting, knowing how to cook is not a luxury or a maybe-you'll-learn-to-cook kind of thing. It is a REQUIREMENT! You were thrown into deep waters and you had to learn to swim or survive in the kitchen. So back to chapati lessons. Whenever mom would cook, she'd require us to sit and watch her cook and learn because "kesho ni wewe utapika" (tomorrow is your day to cook). Cooking chapati was a chore we all hated but after a while I think I was the only one who actually enjoyed being in the kitchen. So we would cook and the chapatis would turn out shapeless and hard as biscuits! Complaining hoping mom would take over since we had butchered the chapatis, she would wave her finger at us "hizo chapati ngumu na shapeless ndio tutakula tuu!" and tell us we would all eat those chapatis until we learnt. Needless to say, we enjoyed the chapatis as they were until it was no longer a chore, for me at least, my sister still hates cooking chapati she would rather eat rice or noodles. For me the secret to making soft chapati is hot water, you start off nu kneading with a spoon before the water cools off then use hands to knead until smooth. For this process however you need warm water to knead flour because the dough becomes too soft if water is too hot. The DOUGH is what makes a GOOD chapati, get that right and you will enjoy making delicious soft chapati. So lets get on with it.

COCONUT CHAPATI
I think if I had my way I would eat chapati every day of my life for the rest of it. Somehow Chapati never gets old! I always find ways to make Chapati that much more delicious and addictive, not that it needs any upgrade. I have always loved coconut, whether I am using it in drinks, rice or just munching on it raw as I grate, hence today's recipe of Coconut Chapati. My memories with coconut date back to when mom used to buy lots of coconut and cook it in pilaf rice. We had that traditional coconut grater that was made with wood. You would sit on it and pup half the coconut on a blade that was at the front and grate away.It was always fun and we all looked forward to most weekends that we got the chance to do that. So take coconut and add Chapati, and you have a match made in heaven. The coconut made the dough so soft that it was easy to knead and did not take too much time to rest. As you cook the Chapati you will be warmed up by the sweet aroma of coconut that emits from the chapati being cooked. So far I have made Dhania Chapati, Wholewheat Chapati and Plain Chapati and I still look forward to making many more!

DHANIA CHAPATI
It's already mid week! Can you believe that? Chapati is a favorite dish in many homes and ours is no exception. We eat this delicious flat bread on weekends and it never gets too repetitive because I always look forward to Sundays. Sundays is our unofficial Chapati Day! If you want to make chapati eating a new experience every single time, why not add other ingredients while cooking it? There are so many ways that you can make your chapati it's crazy how versatile chapati can be. Did you know you can even add spinach to your chapati? Now that I will try albeit with a little bit of a side eye. It sounds healthy though.So anyway my chapati today I will be adding Dhania (Cilantro/Coriander). I love the fresh aroma that Cilantro adds to chapatis. This herb is just too delicious, it gives food that ala carte feel with its vibrant green color and taste. Cilantro makes the chapatis softer and more tastier. I had fun making these Cilantro Chapatis and could not wait to eat them! We had the dhania chapatis with Yellow Beans stew and boy did we chop them down, fast. I kid you not, only three were left, whoever got up first the next morning got the chance to indulge in them with Tea. That's how good they were!

HEALTHY WHOLEWHEAT CHAPATI
In my quest to try and live healthy, I want to try out wholewheat foods. And since Chapati (flat bread) is one of my very favorite dishes to eat, I thought this time I would make Wholewheat Chapatis. Chapati making is a skill that needs lots of practice just like any other cooking technique. But I have discovered that the secret to making soft Chapatis is in using hot water. Hot water somehow softens the Flour before you begin kneading it. I must admit as a kid I never really liked 'brown Chapati' as we used to call wholewheat Chapatis, but as I grew up I guess I acquired a taste for them. They somehow became delicious. Maybe it was the way they were being cooked growing up. Wholewheat flour is kind of a challenge to work with when it comes to cooking Chapati.All the times I have cooked Wholewheat Chapati I have added white All Purpose Flour. I must try cooking the Chapati with all Wheat Flour and see whether they will hold. The ratio I use is usually 2 Cups Wholewheat Flour to 3/4 Cup White All Purpose Flour. This helps to bind the Flour while kneading and even cooking so that the Chapatis do not break apart. The other secret of making soft Chapatis is to knead with cooking oil as you finish. All I can say is that the Chapatis turned out soft and delicious. Try them out and let me know your experience with Wholewheat Chapatis.
