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.

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"

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.

[@innocenteats]

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.
