The Easiest Way to Make the Softest Chapatis with Cold Water

Making really soft chapati with cold water shouldn't be a complicated process. In today's video, I show you how to make chapatis with cold water, using a procedure my mom taught me; a procedure most people would be surprised at because she often made her chapatis really fast! I pray the video will be a blessing, giving you one more recipe to help you enhance your hospitality for the glory of God.

[@ChristianRieko]

BTW thank you very much

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

You're welcome!

[@kyomukamamackline3182]

Thank you so much for the video. How do you really regulate the heat, I made mine and they came out hard and crispy 🤦🏾‍♀️, was the heat to much or too low??

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

You're welcome Mackline. O I'm sorry about this. Usually I work with heat that is medium to low. I avoid working with either extremes - too high or too low. I will then let a chapati piece stay on the pan slightly less than a minute as it turns a slightly darker color. When I apply oil to both sides, I let it stay on one side again slightly less than minute, and the other side also slightly less than a minute- a total of at most 3 minutes or slightly less. Hope this will help as you regulate the flame.. Don't give up

Is that cup just as the normal tea cup?

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

Thank you so much Joan! I sincerely appreciate this.

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

@@joanwanjiru4784 it's a measuring cup but it is closer in measurement to some of the smaller teacups that are between the big mugs and the small teacups in size. Since I'm not sure of your particular size, you could work with it to see whether the salt and sugar especially was enough then adjust accordingly. Hope this helps!

[@esternduku72]

How many cups

[@lmil9604]

very helpful. wasn't the salt diluted after the additional cups of flour?

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

I'm grateful the recipe is helpful. Hope I've understood the question.. The salt eventually spreads evenly into the entire dough as you mix and knead

[@nicholasnicie1040]

Hi i just watched for the first time.. Really ve never cooked chapatis.... I only watched my mum do... 2023 i moved out of home and stay alone i wish to start learning cooking them i ve watched this video more times.. To follow the steps... How can i build my confidence in cooking ... I wish i was taught this 20 yrs ago....

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

☺️Wonderful to know you are interested. That's the first step. I would encourage you to start with a little.. a cup of water for example. Then reduce the ingredients to 1/4 of the recipe. Then keep adding ingredients as you perfect. With time, you'll become better and better. Thank you so much for watching! I trust all shall be well.

How many cups of flour

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

Hi Ester, I'm really sorry I purposely didn't give the number of cups of flour because the different brands I use will almost always require different amounts of flour. Kindly work with the consistency of dough. Let it be a soft sticky dough. I hope this helps..

[@NelimaShanieDoreen]

what if I add salt without sugar

[@recipesandhospitalitywithclara]

That is very okay Nelima, I do that sometimes.
