Guys, we really tried to make chapati! 🤣
We will do better next time but regardless of the outcome, we had a fun time together and that’s what counts, right?
We have raised enough funds for four beehives that are going to our community.. our goal is 20 hives!
If you’d like to be a part of this project you can donate through any of these ways:
Mpesa: 0707843614
Venmo: Mekenze-limiri
PayPal: mekenzeinkenya@gmail.com
Website: www.limirifarms.com
Thank you so much to all of your support towards our community projects! 🇰🇪🙏🏻♥️

Watching you was hilarious. The pan was too hot, that's why the Chapatis were burnt. The big patches were because of using Self Rising Flour. The pan can be cooled by wiping with a cloth soaked in water and drained in between cooking each Chapati. If you continue this activity with your children, you will became accomplished Chapati Makers.

Yeah it's workable in taste; your remaining dough, roll into small balls and deep fry in deep oil, you'll get super mandazis.

The unga is for mandazi, It is raising on heat. Use the one without self raising.I love how you are raising your children. They have no phones on their hands. They are hands on training. Tv, playing and reading books, cooking in the village setting with fresh air. This is very nice. Fo the jiko instead of blowing allow the wind to blow into the mouth where the paper is and it help in lighting

I am still watching now am at 8.26.I just want to say when preparing dough for chapati dont start with water,Start with flour then you add water slowly . Also dont put so much oil.You just want the pan to be a little bit oily.You add oil once the chapat is mostly done both sides When you start with water its easy to end up with dough having too much water and you keep adding up flour. Also Self raising is not for chapati but for naan/pita bred which you cook without oil.

They don't look like chapati coz you guys used flour for mandazi, which makes the mandazi rise. I bet its tasty though. Next time close the jiko to reduce the heat and use a wet cloth to cool the pan. And make thin chapatis for the best results

Try make chapatis gas/electric burner, because then you can control the amount of heat more easily. Jiko is just a mess plus headaches from the little amount of CO you inhale.

You've done a remarkable job but I agree with the rest....use All Purpose Flour next time. To make them fluffy, kindly apply oil, butter or margarine after rolling them out as you did the first time....then make another ball after applying the oil or margarine. Leave it to rest and roll it out as you cook. It'll be be yummy and will have layers.
