My name is Ruth today. You made chapati with milk and butter. We lived in Kenya for 10 years and loved loved loved it and with all of our hearts we miss it. We have three children adopted from there. They are here with us. There are children we still make chapati, we still make lentils. We make many things that we love. We are so grateful to have found your show.

Chef Wainaina, you did it I'm a loyal follower, and I wish YouTube would let people add pictures. I have tried all three of your chapati recipes, and this one wins! They came out PERFECTLY soft with Layers upon Layers and can I tell you how pretty they look?! My husband is shocked, I am shocked and my 2-year-old refused to eat dinner because she is teething, but when I offered her one of these chapattis, she ate a WHOLE chapati dry! That's how soft and perfect they are!
I own a dessert company and one of the things the culinary world teaches you is that a good chef can teach anyone! My struggle with other "chef's / bloggers/ even individuals or family members" is that they may be good at something, but they can't teach anyone. The famous statement by Kenyans, " me hupima na macho - I eyeball ingredients, " drives me nuts. But, the thing I adore about you is that you give accurate measurements for anyone to attempt and isn't there to eyeball with you. From one chef to another....THANK YOU!
On that note, I used a Kitchen Aid to mix the ingredients ( for those who are curious if it would work), I then put the dough on the counter, added some oil on my hands and manipulated it to a round ball. Placed in back in the mixer, covered the dough with cling wrap and went to run errands. The dough was resting for approximately 3 hours (unintentionally), but when I came home it was a breeze going forward. Now I will be making this chapati this way for the rest of my life.

Question Chef, could you please give me measurements if I wanted to double and triple this recipe? I would appreciate it. Thank you!

Chapati is my favourite bread hands down & so versatile can eat it all day 😋

[macsam]

Excellent product, many people from different cultures, will have something to say, some negative and some positive. Either way, it is prepared to be eaten with a stew, protein or by itself! Delicious!!! ❤

Wow! Looks so yummy and easy to make. Thanks for sharing.

[CalypsoWmn]

These are so much fun to make! You can do all kinds of rolls to make those marvelous layers. I have seen pleats, cinnamon rolls, cones, two strand twists 😂
But Chef's videos are truly the best example of processing & cooking them I have seen! I smiled through the whole video. I'll be watching all of your videos 😂 Asante Chef!

[Jane-ieul]
