Two chapatis, a staple in Indian and South Asian cuisine, are flatbreads made primarily from whole wheat flour (atta) and water, often cooked on a griddle or open flame. Each chapati is thin, soft, and versatile, typically paired with curries, vegetables, or lentils. The whole wheat base makes chapatis a fiber-rich option, supporting digestion and promoting a sense of fullness. They also provide complex carbohydrates, offering sustained energy, and are low in fat when prepared traditionally without added oils or butter. However, their nutritional value depends on portion size and accompaniments, as pairing with high-fat or high-sugar dishes can increase overall calorie intake. Gluten-sensitive individuals or those with celiac disease should avoid chapatis due to their wheat content. Simple yet wholesome, two chapatis can be part of a balanced meal, reflecting the nutritional strength of traditional Indian cooking.
