 Chapati - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When a mixture of millet, maize and gram flour is used, the chapati is called a missi roti.
Chapati or chapatti is a type of roti or Indian bread eaten in South Asia and East Africa.
Chapatis are usually eaten with cooked dal (lentil soup) or vegetable (Indian curry) dishes, and pieces of the chapati are used to wrap around and pick up each bite of the cooked dish.

 How to Make Indian Flatbreads
Chapatis or rotis are fresh homemade bread, made with wheat or other grain flours and baked without yeast.
If the chapati does not puff up, there may have been a small hole in the dough or the dough may not have been kneaded enough.
You can add spices and herbs to the chapati dough before you knead it if you like -- choose from ground cumin, ground coriander, ground fennel, sweet Hungarian paprika, shredded ginger, finely chopped green chillies, finely chopped cilantro, finely chopped mint leaves, ajwain seeds and a pinch or two of asafetida.

The chapati made from the flour of the invention thus has superior sensory attributes to chapati made from ordinary wheat flour.
Sensory Analysis of Chapati The characteristics of the chapati made from Example 8 and Example 12 were studied and compared with the chapati made from a control wheat flour.
Moreover the known production processes for making a Chapati often lack the ease of kneading the dough, whereas the way the dough resulting from these known processes can be sheeted is also often very difficult.

The flour that is used for chapatis has a texture coarser than all-purpose flour and finer than the whole wheat flour found in Western groceries.
Chapati dough is simple enough to make: simply whole wheat flour, pinch of salt and water kneaded together to make a soft smooth-as-a-babys-bottom dough, cover with a damp towel and let it rest for 20-30 minutes, then make golf-ball size balls and roll (or press) out the chapatis.
Authentic chapatis are not merely flat breads, they are LAYERED flat breads.

 It's 'Chapati' now -DAWN - Business; 08 March, 2004
The wheat exhibiting the special baking qualities is the result of the labours of cultivators and farmers in India who originally grew these plants for their own regional requirements, growing them to bake traditional Indian bread (chapatis).
If Monsanto's bid succeeds, as it appears, it could equally affect Pakistani farmers' interests because it is the same wheat variety from which 'chapati' is prepared in this country, too.
Although Monsanto says it will use the patent to market bread only in 13 European countries, Japan, Australia, Canada and the United States, one can't rule out the day when it comes to India and starts charging people for using the wheat whose patent it possesses.

 Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Monsanto's chapati patent raises Indian ire
Another patent, filed in Europe, gives Monsanto rights over the use of Nap Hal wheat to make chapatis, which consist of flour, water and salt.
Monsanto, the world's largest genetically modified seed company, has been awarded patents on the wheat used for making chapati - the flat bread staple of northern India.
The patents give the US multinational exclusive ownership over Nap Hal, a strain of wheat whose gene sequence makes it particularly suited to producing crisp breads.
