Chapati

EverydayCooked

Chapati is a traditional unleavened flatbread that serves as a staple food in South Asian and East African cuisines. Made from whole wheat flour and water, this round bread is cooked on a dry griddle (tava) until lightly charred, developing a soft, pliable texture ideal for scooping curries or vegetables. As a minimally processed whole grain option, it provides more dietary fiber than refined flour breads while remaining naturally vegan and free from added fats.
