About Chapatis

Chapati is a traditional flatbread originating from Indian cuisine, commonly enjoyed across South Asia and East Africa. Made from whole wheat flour, water, and a pinch of salt, chapatis are rolled into thin discs and cooked on a skillet or griddle. This simple preparation makes them a wholesome and versatile bread, often paired with vegetables, lentils, or curries. Chapatis are rich in complex carbohydrates, providing a steady source of energy, and contain dietary fiber, which aids digestion and supports heart health. They are naturally low in fat, especially when cooked without added oils. However, nutritional balance depends on serving size and accompaniments; pairing chapatis with heavy, creamy dishes may increase their calorie intake. Light, filling, and nutritious, chapatis are a staple in balanced diets and are ideal for those seeking a wholesome alternative to more processed breads.
