About Chapati

Chapati is a traditional flatbread that originates from Indian cuisine and is commonly consumed across South Asia and parts of East Africa. Made with just whole wheat flour, water, and sometimes a pinch of salt, chapati is a simple yet versatile staple. Its whole wheat base makes it a good source of complex carbohydrates, fiber, and essential minerals like magnesium and iron, supporting digestion and sustained energy. Chapati is typically cooked on a griddle, without oil, making it a heart-healthy option compared to fried breads. It is naturally low in fat and pairs well with a variety of nutrient-rich curries and vegetables, enhancing its nutritional profile. However, individuals who need to manage carbohydrate intake should consider portion sizes. Chapati is celebrated for its wholesomeness and adaptability, making it a nutritious addition to balanced meals in many global cuisines.
