I am a man who has desperately tried to cook chapatis when my wife travels for long periods of time, and am happy to have cooked the first edible and delicious ones after reading through your blog.
Thank you

You are welcome. I am happy that you are happy. I do like your adventure making the chapati with cinnamon etc. My daughter likes to mix a lot of things too. She even put jam on chapati. It taste great.

Please visit always. I will try my best after April to be uploading 2 videos a month.

Mingi Love
Miriam Kinunda

i am a gigantic fan of anything “bread” ESPECIALLY anything in the “flat” catagory =) but have never endeavored to try making them at home.
thanks to your exceptionally easy-to-understand instructions, i even dared to experiment with different “fillings” to replace the coat of oil in step 6(2)
the recipe lends to a truly amazing foundation for a countless array of possibilities!
oh, and i will most definitely be using your recipe again and again… probably daily!

here’s some of the “filling” ingredients i tried today:

Cinnamon toast – clarified butter, saigon cinnamon, dark & light brown sugar, few drops of cream from clarified butter.
OMG it tasted heavenly! thinking of endless combination of toppings and uses…
rolled one super thin(about the thickness of a corn tortilla)purely out of curiousity – and it turned out SUPER light and flakey and crispy in just the most perfect ways!

GARLIC toast: i know, i just wanted to stick w some very basic ingrdients. but TRUST me i’m already thinking of ALL SORTS of flavor combinations even as i am typing this – garlic (fresh) infused melted butter (generous amount) parsley flakes

SESAME toast: drop or two of sesame oil to one (1) Table spoon of olive oil, 5-spice, white pepper (i added the dry spices to the oil mixture and then brushed it on)

Miriam, thank you so so so so so very much for sharing!

I am originally from Kenya and I live in Canada. I do agree with you that the East African Chapatis are not parathas and yes we do add oil in our chapatis and we like them soft with lots of layers. If I ever visit Tanzania I shall pay you a visit just to eat those delicious chapatis. Thumbs up!!

I was able to get the right texture but they tasted like flour-not how I remember chapatis from Tanzania! Any suggestions to get a bit more flavour?
