I ATTEMPTED COOKING A TYPICAL TANZANIAN BREAKFAST | Not A Chef 👨‍🍳

maize flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: cornmeal

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

coconut

🥗Healthier: almond flakes

💰Cheaper: dried coconut

Almonds provide healthy fats with lower calories.

fish

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: canned tuna

Tofu is a plant-based protein option.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: maple syrup

Honey is a natural sweetener with flavor.

Add all-purpose flour to a mixing bowl based on how many people will be eating.

Add salt and 2 spoons of sugar to the flour and mix well.

Add warm cooking oil to the mixture.

Gradually add warm water to the mixture, ensuring it doesn't stick to your hands.

Knead the dough until it is not sticky, adding a bit more oil if necessary to make it smooth.

Cover the dough with a wrap or cloth and let it rest for a few minutes.

After resting, cut the dough into small rounds.

Flatten each round into a flat shape using a rolling pin or a bottle.

Heat a pan and place the flattened chapati on it to cook.

Cook until the chapati is ready, adjusting cooking time for desired softness.
