Chapati is the East African version of unleavened flatbread. It only requires five simple ingredients that are staples in your pantry. The dough is kneaded in a way that creates tender, flaky layers in each circle of bread. Brown your chapatis in a skillet, and serve them as an appetizer or for dipping into a tasty broth.
