Soft Chapati Recipe (How To Make Layered Chapati) | Soft Kenyan Chapati | Soft Paratha recipe

- Chapati is a tasty and delicious unleavened flat bread similar to Indian parathas. The Kenyan style chapati is layered which makes it very soft and a very popular bread that can be had at anytime of day or with anything, Its perfect with stews, soups or even with a cup of chai ( tea).
Chapati making is a good exercise and the more you make chapos the better you become good at it. If you have a mixer it makes it easy and gives a better dough with a good consistency. but you can also do it by hand kneading, Its a little more work and time. When the dough is ready it should spring back when pressed with a thumb.
what you will need for this recipe:
3 lbs (1.36Kg ) or 9- 10 cups All Purpose Flour Standard measuring cup)
1.5 Tbsp. Kosher salt
1 Tbsp. Granulated sugar
1Qt ( 4 cups) Luke warm water
1/3 c vegetable oil
Note, for the salt, if you are using fine table salt use less.

This is my neighbor! He is a GREAT cook but even better person! His food is loved by all! This I promise you! :)
Thank you so much for your nice words, I have the best neighbors and friends.
@@chefwainaina , can you please give us your measurements in cups or kilograms?.
@@chefwainaina , thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge. However, I suggest you write your recipe in the description box, if you don't mind, Sir.
@Betty, check the description I just updated the recipe info for you guys, really appreciate all of you.
Is he married !??????? 🤔if not , help me send him a " would you marry me "

The Kenyans are the best for Indian cuisine ... Once I visited a Restaurant in Nairobi... The waiter came and asked me for the order... I told him to bring whatever he wants... He smiled and came back after few minutes with nice chicken curry, spinach sag, and a hot bowl of soup with chapati and rice... He waited till I taste... So I tasted and was shocked... It tasted almost the same as the food my momma used to cook...I almost cried as It reminded me of my childhood... The waiter replied "I knew you would love this"
That's so nice of you, thanks for sharing that. Kenyan cuisine is a melting pot of so many cultures and Indian food plays a huge role .
@@chefwainaina You are right Chef
Habibi..happy to hear this about my motherland..welcome again and again...we are kind people
Touching story. I am not Indian, but years ago before we had the Internet, I took two 10 week courses at night school in Toronto that covered from the north to south of India. I need to start practicing the recipes again. I can cook a few of the Trinidadian Indian foods because we all cook the basic curry dishes there regardless of race.
Kenyan is NOT Indian. Get your facts straight.
I loooove this guy. The presentation, the positive mood, the energy in this guy is just infectious. As a bachelor, I usually cook chapatis that are almost as hard as wood like the one Jesus broke during the Last Supper. When eating, my jaws get tired before I finish the first one. No w I know which steps I've been missing.
Wow, thank you!
Sorry for laughing but this is funny
True story, Jedida 😎😎
@@mrmoneybagz You made me laugh. I am Somali and was making chapati since I was a teen. But I think there's always room for improvement. Good luck!
Hey @@hudamohamed6810, I've been a bit hesitant to give it another try coz I don't wanna end up eating only one, again. But I might just prepare some chapoz this weekend 😊😊.
Chef, I just discovered you last night. I was born in Kenya to a Zimbabwean dad and Slovenian mom. Although I left there at 5years of age, I remember the chapatis fondly. Guess what? I made them today. I used half the recipe and made 8 beautifully soft and flaky chapatis. I used one for a breakfast wrap and got so inspired that I am currently making the Kenya style chicken curry, but using chicken thighs. I am so excited for lunch. I have subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to trying more of your concoctions. Peace and greetings and Kenyan, Slovenian and Zimbabwean in Washington DC.

So sweet
Hi chef, my first time here. Did you use cold water for the layered with chapatis or warm water?
@@janegatuha3359 You always use "warm: with flour.

Hi Wainsina,
Thank you for sharing the original procedure of making chapati. The rolling, oiling and rolling it like a snake reminds me how my mum taught us in the sixties....we could afford to eat chapati onlly at Christmas.. was a delicacy! A great day to look forward to in a year. Good memories!
Yes, you are right
Very delicious I like it
I made these following this recipe a while ago. They turned out so well. I’ve tried other recipes since but non have had as good of results. Thank you.
I Love the way you take the time to show most of the process of making Chapati. Many other short videos I've watched make it look so easy, but when I try it out thinking my kids dinner will be ready in 15 minutes, I get disappointed and frustrated with myself. So thank you for showing us the whole labor of love of making Chapati! I'll try your recipe.❤
Hmmmmmm hungry by just watching him cook!! Lots of memories!👍👍👍👍👌💯❣️
Thank you so much for watching.
Why are you hungry?
I was born in Nairobi & growing up these layered chaps were our breakfast 4 of them before we left to school. Yammie.

Thank you very much for teaching me, God bless you

Tea and chapati is magical 😋
This is amazing. Down south in India we make our chapattis like this too. And yes chapatti and tea is a heavenly combo!❤️
Thanks ARJ

I too thought chipati was an Indian bread.

Chapoz, my best bread.
Great job, love it
Beautiful brings back memories of my mother, you use vegetable oil and she used butter. Crispy and light, keep up the good work.
Awesome, food memories are the best, as for the oil to use its all about preferences, definitely butter is the best taste wise.
This is beautifully done. It's a simple recipe and I can see how much time and love goes into creating them.
Thanks for sharing with new generations. It does give a great appreciation for foreign cuisine.
Thank you so much 🙂
Very good, of all chapati recipe I have ever watched this is the best and well filmed. Thank you so much for the lesson.

Fantastic chef ... thanks for the iseful tips u showed us in order to make nice, soft chapos.... Asante Sana Mkubwa
It's so amazing to see how different cultures make their Roti.We make it a bit different in Trinidad🇹🇹 but this looks great,well done👏🏼
buss-up-shot without baking powder, wow, who would of thought!
@@melissamalahowie127
East Indians don't add baking powder to all purpose flour when making chapati and parathas etc.
Nice
I am from Trinidad. I have tried your paratha and bussup shot recipes but I had to do them a few times, but this came out perfect with one try. They are a bit different though. They are lighter and thinner for homemade.
Amazing 😢
That looks very tasty thanks for sharing
Chef Wainaina may God continue blessing your work. You really teach us many different ways of cooking. Thanks big.
