Hi Aunty,
I used to eat frozen chapati but I decided to buy chapati flour to save money although it is a little time consuming(for an inexperienced person like me). I made my first chapati, but it didn’t come out as expected. It was dry, yellow in color and had no brown spots.I dont know why this is.Please let me know if you have any idea.I would very much appreciate it.Thank you!!

Hello,

Where did you get your tavi and on what heat setting have you kept your electric stove? I am used to gas stove but will soon be moving and using electric any tips on using electric stove?

On what heat setting should I keep it on if i need to make rice which have seperate grains rather than sticky grains.

I’m with Soraya. My rotis didn’t turn out well either. I used “stone ground” whole wheat flour, which looked browner and coarser than the flour Manjual used in the video. Maybe that was my mistake.

If you’re talking about the large glass dishes then pretty much anywhere! If you mean the smaller ones she uses for spices, I’ve picked up those 3 for a $1 at the local dollar store (Dollarama, in this case).

Hello Manjula,
I just discoverd your recipes.
I tried out to make some rotis yesterday. It turned out to be a flop :
very dry, non puffy..
I used a brown flour for chapati…
what’s wrong?
Thanks for your answer.
