I am an Indian and I made this exactly like this and it tasted excellent, much better than any Paratha i make, out of respect for you Kenyan roots and your wonderful talent, I have no hesitation in calling it my Kenyan Chappati! Thank you sister 🙏
My aunt was from Azerbaijan origin, she made same recipe many times only added ground spices of turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, pepper, chopped parsley. Served with maple syrup or honey or milk. Just shows, how united we are in cooking. 🇨🇦🇨🇦
As an indian from South Africa, i am proud of my indian heritage and I'm proud of anyone who cooks indian food. People get so sensitive when another culture cooks their national dishes but I am proud when its spread across the world to enjoy. Stop being so sensitive people. I also did not know that indians lived in Kenya for so many years. Your chapati looks absolutely delicious and thank you so much for sharing the recipe with us. Keep making these amazing videos. Lotsa love to you ❤happy cooking!
She is calling it as an Indian dish coz firstly it was made by Indians who were brought there as a slave 300 yrs ago by colonials later on they became part of that country and their cuisine too.
This is our very Indian style of parathas. We usually add coriander leaves, and green chillies too 😀 loved your style. Please do not waste the pumpkin water . It can easily be added to the dough for securing the nutrients.
In case Indians are wondering why Kenyans are calling it a Kenyan recipe, it's because of Kenya's huge Indian population. Thousands of Indians migrated there 300 years ago to help build/develop the country. Actually, they might have been brought there as slaves by the British initially to build the railway. There's also many Hindu temples throughout Africa as well.
They were there before Britain. They were part of the Islamic commerce and slave trade along the coast. The British probably added during their own time, but trade from one end to the other of the Indian Ocean was happening along the Swahili coast long before that, even including Chinese delegates at one point.
Very nice recipe. Really appreciate the way a non Indian lady making such silky chapaties👌👌 one suggestion though, instead of boiling in water and throwing that water away, steam the pumpkin pieces in steamer or cooker, to avoid the loss of nutrients.
In the Caribbean this would be called buss-up-shot. It amazes me how a recipe can travel the world and adapt to the place where people settle in their new homes while being familiar. I'm going to have to give this a try!
Please do try and replace the all purpose flour, with fibre rich whole wheat grain. It's superbly healthy, and great for texture, also easier to knead, easier to roll, and manage! Thank you. Lots of love from India!
Lovely indeed we in india call them kulcha and in mumbai ghadichya polya these chapatis hve 3/4layers.i like mychapatis in layers too.i like the way you instruct such a melodious sft voice
I was amazed to hear chapati from someone not from India😊. It was history unfolding as i read the comments about Indians going to Kenya 300 years ago. It is fascinating to learn world history through cuisines. I loved the clear and systematic video of pumpkin chapati. ❤❤❤❤❤❤I am surely going to try it. Now I know we have one thing common with Kenyans. I loved the slit and roll method. In india we use the second method❤❤❤
These look delicious, I'm definitely going to try them. I love the little tips like pressing with the spatula. HUGE CONGRATULATIONS FOR BEING PLANET FRIENDLY AND USING A CLEAN DISH TOWEL AND NOT PLASTIC WRAP TO COVER YOUR DOUGH AND USING A PURE METAL PAN AND NOT A NON-STICK!!!!!
We just use finely grated pumpkin and add it to the flour. The pumpkin cooks along with the chapathi and tastes well also. Also, we avoid using maida (all purpose flour) and use atta (whole wheat flour) instead. That's a healthier alternative
Coriander - cilantro, same thing. It is one of those herbs that either one loves, or it does not appeal at all. I am one of the ones who does not care for the taste. When I see a recipe calling for coriander/cilantro, I simply use parsley or celery leaves.
This looks amazing! I had some volunteer pumpkins this year, and this recipe is first on my list. I don't use vegetable oil. I will be using butter. Thank you for sharing.
Your version is just lovely- more fiber and Vit A. It isn’t unusual to add stuff to prata or chappati dough. It is still prata/ chappati. Thank you. My mom used to add cooked mashed peas or cooked mashed eggplant, sandwich between two chappatis, roll them out gently and pan fry them. Looking forward to more recipes.
Good nutritious recipe when you peel pumkin dont throw away the skin , just grind it fine put oil in a pot temper it with cumin seeds put the skin in it saute till its dry put some seasame seeds or ground nut powder add salt red chilli flakes and a side dish with the pumpkin chapatis ready . nothing goes waste and full nutritional benifite .
Hey in Maharashtra, India we have similar tradinal recipe but wheat flour rather then APF , besides sugar we use jaggery & inted oil we use ghee (clarified butter) and pinch of salt and cardamom powder. It tastes awesome and have beautiful fragrance. We can have with potato dry curry or simply plain with more ghee.
It was indeed an eye opener for me to know that Kenyans call it the way we do and we are all over the world longer than we think. Thank you so much for the recipe. 😊
Thank you for the time and video. I can't wait to try this, and plan to report back when I do. Meanwhile, I need to share a tip I got many years ago from a Colombian friend. I was also taught to cook pumpkin the hard way, and have since seen the light. You could save yourself much time, trouble, and energy, by simply steaming or boiling the unpeeled large chunks of pumpkin (butternut squash) for the same amount of time. Let the chunks cool slightly, and they will be much easier to peel, and will have retained more of their nutrients, which are higher closer to the skin. In fact, when my friend uses pumpkin in recipes for stews or soup, she leaves the peel in, and it's softened enough to provide a chewy texture and more nutrition. Thanks again, and best regards.
I am Indian, never seen/heard of pumpkin chapati before. Healthy-ish and great way to get veggies in your children’s diet..can also think of this as dessert version… 😋
Love to hear the word chapati and see the traditional food overseas❤ We prepare these chapatis in the west of india using wheat flour, jaggery and pumpkin😊
These look delicious 😋 If you roast the squash, whichever type you choose, it will be slightly drier and considerably sweeter than if it's boiled. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the innards, wipe with a neutral oil, and roast at 400° F until tender, 40 min or so
Kenya has a huge Indian population that migrated there 200 years ago to help build/develop the country. They might have been brought there as slaves initially by the British. This is why they have many Indian dishes in Kenya, South Africa, Ghana etc. as well as Hindu temples throughout Africa.
This looks so delicious! It is pumpkin season so I'm going to try out your recipe. My usual favorites are with potato filling (aloo paratha) or with dried fenugreek mixed with the flour. Recently I've been experimenting with other vegetables too, like beetroots and carrots. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Love from India 💕
Wow! very nice recipe. I love the way you patiently explained every step, to cook a traditional dish which is so familiar in my country too ! Thank you... much love!
In Pakistan apart from cutting meat and cooking meat what other cuisines do you have ?? Practically nothing. With so much adulteration even in meat, you don't know what you get to eat.....donkey meat or dog meat instead of goat meat or sheep meat. I get so surprised when Pakistanis come to India and are shocked to see so many of our commonly used recipes. And they go finger licking.
Oh my goodness, I need your knife!! I love all kinds of winter squash and pumpkins and cook them often. They are such a pain l to peel even though I have a good Chinese cleaver to do the job. Maybe I’m just lazy. I’ll make this soon because I have two beautiful butternut squashes I grew in containers on my deck this summer. I can’t wait to make these! I do have a great pumpkin bolani recipe that I make pretty often in the fall and winter, but this looks amazing.
Yes in East Africa we called these chapati, and here in Kenya you will find many street vendors cooking & selling them in most streets and eat with smokies famously known as Smocha (shorterm from smokie&chapati) they add kachumbari and this snack is amazing!!!! In all hotels (except some foreign based cuisines) & cafes you will get chapatis.
Wow I never know that African have so many South Asian dish sorry but parotta was first came in malaysia not in India in malaysia they first invented this food after some of our indian bring this dish to india
@@Romaldochristopher5572 Indians came to East Africa over 100 years ago as traders and others were brought by the British colonizers as labourers. So, we've adopted many Indian dishes such as chapati, samosa, bhajia, Biryani, pilau, etc.

I was wondering what to do with my homegrown pumpkin after trying so many different recipes. Thank you for sharing this recipe! I’m definitely going to try this next!
We make pumpkin puris, adding cooked 1 cup pumpkin and Jaggery as required to wheat flour, make a bit hard dough , make small chapati like and deep fry it,,, very tasty.. try this too😊
That looks so delicious and how you made that you put in the best ingredients with the squash I thought that was excellent thank you. I’m an American woman and I am vegan and I like different bread. Thank you.
I'm Indian by birth, American by naturalization, and consider myself a global citizen. I love it that we cook foods from another region. So many new and delicious creations have been made. Otherwise how are we going to have new versions of the original? 💗
I have been to Kenya twice for a duration of 2 months every time. It was a very nice experience. Kenyan people are very friendly and beautiful. The country is very beautiful too. My husband was working there for 5 years and it's our dream to visit Kenya once more in our life. Thanks for sharing the recipe. You can try this with sweet potato as well. That comes out very well too. Lots of love and good wishes ❤❤❤
You are so sweet with your initial explanation! This is a really good idea; I would call it a pumpkin lacchha paratha in my language! I also saw people making pumpkin rotis (which incidentally, most Indians would possibly confuse with chapatis, but 'chapati' is just a blanket term in Hindi for any flatbread).
Hey! I like the way you prepared the dough. I’ll definitely try your method to get layers. I usually do something like second method. I use butter and then fold front and then back in alternate manner instead of rolling back (search for lachha paratha recipe). In this way I get more layers.
Such a nice recipe of Pumpkin chappati. In pakistan we use different words and chappati is one of tgem. The chappatis, rotis and phulkas are cooked withòut oil or ghee and the paratha is made with ghee or oil. And the dough for all these is made with whole wheat flour. So happy to know that its called chappati in Kenya like Pakistan.
In India, Chapatis are made without using any oil and Parathas are always with oil as you made here. Some Parathas are made without layers and some with layers as you have shown here. Btw, I must try your style Pumpkin-Parathas at home for sure. Thanks for this video.
@@paulasir123 Dear, it all depends on from which region of India/Pakistan/Bangladesh/Nepal is making this chapatis. We all are so different in making the same stuff but argue that "Mine is the best or original". So, Chapatis with ghee/oil and Parathas without any oil - is okay, as long as it tastes good.
Very original yummy recipe. The way you demonstrated is perfect. I make plain chappati your way but never added squash pumpkin to it. Must try it soon. Your method tells me it is delicious. Thank you lovely lady. ❤
Its nice to know that generations has brought us together by name of Chapati, yes there are different names to what you prepare with, in India toward the northern parts of India they call it Paratha , as you have added pumpkin to it, here it is Potatoes, or spinach, or Cauliflower, this makes a healthy meals for those who work in office and school children can have it for lunch and especially when you travel by train or bus would not like to eat outside food this the best family meal you can relish with Yogurt, Sweet cream, for a little tingy feeling taste it with Indian lime pickle with it, Now we will have the chapati for Halloween as you have used Pumpkin🎃🎃🎃just kidding have a awesome time with much recipes for me to see.
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I tried it and the 'chapatis' turned out really nice, I will be making them again for sure. I was born in Nairobi but live in the UK now, have visited Kenya a while ago, I have shared your recipe with others to enjoy too! 😀
Thank you so much for this recipe. It looks so beautiful, so mouth watering. Next, just don't bother about our people calling it paratha, parota or chappathi. Here in South India we have varieties of parotas and chappathis. Obviously when you have a big Indian population, you will have various types of parotas and chappathis and parathas. What counts is enjoying our food in different flavors, colours, aromas, fragrance, textures & tastes. And finally you did it all like so cool & casually like an expert, just like how our mothers do here.
In South India, it's called Chapathi and in the North, it's called Parantha... However, Parota is prepared from all-purpose flour (Maida), whereas for Chapathi or Parantha, we use wheat flour...
Its our traditional Maharashtrian recipie known as Bhoplyache Gharage. Loved the way you rolled it. 👍We add jaggary instead of sugar, whole wheat flour and small amount of besan.. Thanks for sharing. 🌹
Hi Phil, Jambo.. Habari Yako.. I enjoyed watching ur pumpkin Paratha..🥰 It’s been 40+ years that I left Kenya 🇰🇪 lovely country.. Harambe Nyayo was the jubilant way the Kenyans celebrated their festivals. I’ll try this paratha, Phil n lots of love from India 🇮🇳😀
Pumpkin is so nutritious. I would definitely try this recipe though i might try using whole wheat flour. I too love to see Non-Indians coming up with awesome Indian recipes. Thank you for this delicious looking chapati. I like rolling my parathas using the 1st method u used.
Your chapatis look so yummy 😋. I’m definitely going to try them but would like to add cinnamon and see how it tastes. Regards from your neighbour South Africa 🇿🇦
😊This is calked parathas in India.Wondeeful use of pumpkin.We make a sweet from boiled and mashed pumpkin, with jaggery,cardamom powder.Sometimes the pumpkin is grated .Use the water for kneading the dough,add in curries,soups as it is nutritious.
When you roll out the dough, you butter it, then you sprinkle some flour over it, then you roll them out to form the ball, when you cook them, they will be flaky. But you did a good job. Bravo
Hi Phils Kitchen thank you so much for your Receipe of making Chapati . I stopped making them because they would be hard. This my second time and tried Butternut Chapatis Yummy, I've made with a Ndengu Stew to Eat!!!! Thank you so much!!!❤❤ Blessings
This is a brilliant reciepe sister! I appreciate the Kenyan chapati! Thnks for sharing it. My favorite method is no2, but we dont use a roller. We flatten it with hands. This ensures very nice layers.
I like your ricepe,for me it is your creation , kenyan chapati,is not only in India but also Turkish and Marrocan people is making those kind of roti.Thanks for sharing your chapati recepe greeting from the Netherlands Amsterdam.I will try to make it❤
I'm eating chapatis for dinner. What a coincidence, I'll be preparing the pumpkin/butter nut chapatis next. Phil thanks for this recipe. 🤭 They look so soft.
This aint chapati, it is rather parathas. Chapati is made out of wheat flour and not fried in oil. This is very much an indian recipe.. but i like the fact you tried making it.
I'm from South India. We call this "Poli' and done on festive days. Ww do with coconut/channa dal and Jaggery and it goes so well with melted ghee. And we make it on plaintain leaves, before transferring it to the hot tava for cooking
If you enjoyed watching this video, don't forget to give it a like/thumbsup...Happy cooking❤
I will try this and with other vegetables also

I make these with potatoes and sometimes with puréed carrots.

I'm Indian by birth, American by naturalization, and consider myself a global citizen. I love it that we cook foods from another region. So many new and delicious creations have been made. Otherwise how are we going to have new versions of the original? 💗
I do the 2nd one.I am Indonesian punjabi.
It looks yummy.
I make sweet potatoes, avacado chapatis.🥰
Yeap this is chapati we also make in our country India... Proud to see our staple food becoming popular ... Same like noodles but it's more healthy
I have been to Kenya twice for a duration of 2 months every time. It was a very nice experience. Kenyan people are very friendly and beautiful. The country is very beautiful too. My husband was working there for 5 years and it's our dream to visit Kenya once more in our life. Thanks for sharing the recipe. You can try this with sweet potato as well. That comes out very well too. Lots of love and good wishes ❤❤❤
You are so sweet with your initial explanation! This is a really good idea; I would call it a pumpkin lacchha paratha in my language! I also saw people making pumpkin rotis (which incidentally, most Indians would possibly confuse with chapatis, but 'chapati' is just a blanket term in Hindi for any flatbread).
You made it so nicely. Love from India.
Hey! I like the way you prepared the dough. I’ll definitely try your method to get layers. I usually do something like second method. I use butter and then fold front and then back in alternate manner instead of rolling back (search for lachha paratha recipe). In this way I get more layers.
I am from India and i loved your recipe. Will surely try it. A good way to add more veggies to our diet. Thanks
Just tried this today...very yummy chapatis indeed❤Thanks Phil for the recipe
Great, glad to hear that and thanks for giving my recipe a try❤️
Such a nice recipe of Pumpkin chappati. In pakistan we use different words and chappati is one of tgem. The chappatis, rotis and phulkas are cooked withòut oil or ghee and the paratha is made with ghee or oil. And the dough for all these is made with whole wheat flour. So happy to know that its called chappati in Kenya like Pakistan.
In India, Chapatis are made without using any oil and Parathas are always with oil as you made here. Some Parathas are made without layers and some with layers as you have shown here. Btw, I must try your style Pumpkin-Parathas at home for sure. Thanks for this video.
In south India we do use oil for chapati & every flat bread we call chapati except Kerala where they call it parotta(flaky flat bread)
So untrue. We have been making chapathis for generations with oil
@@paulasir123 Dear, it all depends on from which region of India/Pakistan/Bangladesh/Nepal is making this chapatis. We all are so different in making the same stuff but argue that "Mine is the best or original". So, Chapatis with ghee/oil and Parathas without any oil - is okay, as long as it tastes good.
@@skbiswas Sir, I commented on you saying 'In India Chapathis are made without oil'
Very original yummy recipe. The way you demonstrated is perfect. I make plain chappati your way but never added squash pumpkin to it. Must try it soon. Your method tells me it is delicious. Thank you lovely lady. ❤
They are called lacchha paratha here
Lovely recipe with pumpkin ❤
Its nice to know that generations has brought us together by name of Chapati, yes there are different names to what you prepare with, in India toward the northern parts of India they call it Paratha , as you have added pumpkin to it, here it is Potatoes, or spinach, or Cauliflower, this makes a healthy meals for those who work in office and school children can have it for lunch and especially when you travel by train or bus would not like to eat outside food this the best family meal you can relish with Yogurt, Sweet cream, for a little tingy feeling taste it with Indian lime pickle with it, Now we will have the chapati for Halloween as you have used Pumpkin🎃🎃🎃just kidding have a awesome time with much recipes for me to see.
❤🎉
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I tried it and the 'chapatis' turned out really nice, I will be making them again for sure. I was born in Nairobi but live in the UK now, have visited Kenya a while ago, I have shared your recipe with others to enjoy too! 😀
Thank you so much for this recipe. It looks so beautiful, so mouth watering. Next, just don't bother about our people calling it paratha, parota or chappathi. Here in South India we have varieties of parotas and chappathis. Obviously when you have a big Indian population, you will have various types of parotas and chappathis and parathas. What counts is enjoying our food in different flavors, colours, aromas, fragrance, textures & tastes. And finally you did it all like so cool & casually like an expert, just like how our mothers do here.
In South India, it's called Chapathi and in the North, it's called Parantha... However, Parota is prepared from all-purpose flour (Maida), whereas for Chapathi or Parantha, we use wheat flour...
interesting, well done. as I love pumpkin, I will definitely make it. thanks dear.
Its our traditional Maharashtrian recipie known as Bhoplyache Gharage. Loved the way you rolled it. 👍We add jaggary instead of sugar, whole wheat flour and small amount of besan.. Thanks for sharing. 🌹
Hi. Do you add jaggery enough to make it a little sweet paratha?
I like your version of chapatis, It is always good to see options. Thanks!
Hi Phil, Jambo.. Habari Yako.. I enjoyed watching ur pumpkin Paratha..🥰 It’s been 40+ years that I left Kenya 🇰🇪 lovely country.. Harambe Nyayo was the jubilant way the Kenyans celebrated their festivals. I’ll try this paratha, Phil n lots of love from India 🇮🇳😀
Pumpkin is so nutritious. I would definitely try this recipe though i might try using whole wheat flour. I too love to see Non-Indians coming up with awesome Indian recipes. Thank you for this delicious looking chapati. I like rolling my parathas using the 1st method u used.
Your chapatis look so yummy 😋. I’m definitely going to try them but would like to add cinnamon and see how it tastes. Regards from your neighbour South Africa 🇿🇦
I am from Sri Lanka. I am definitely going to make this. Thanks.
😊This is calked parathas in India.Wondeeful use of pumpkin.We make a sweet from boiled and mashed pumpkin, with jaggery,cardamom powder.Sometimes the pumpkin is grated .Use the water for kneading the dough,add in curries,soups as it is nutritious.
In south India we call it chapati..fyi
In maharshtra too..
Perfect combination of foods from two beautiful places
When you roll out the dough, you butter it, then you sprinkle some flour over it, then you roll them out to form the ball, when you cook them, they will be flaky. But you did a good job. Bravo
Hi Phils Kitchen thank you so much for your Receipe of making Chapati . I stopped making them because they would be hard. This my second time and tried Butternut Chapatis Yummy, I've made with a Ndengu Stew to Eat!!!! Thank you so much!!!❤❤ Blessings
Hi...this is very nice! One humble suggestion: add a pinch of finely ground nutmeg to the mashed pumpkin...if you like the flavour!
And or cinnamon powder
This is a brilliant reciepe sister! I appreciate the Kenyan chapati! Thnks for sharing it. My favorite method is no2, but we dont use a roller. We flatten it with hands. This ensures very nice layers.
These look so good! I’m definitely going to make them! Thank you!❤
Your nails are beautiful
Looks awesome ❤, I am using sweet potato instead of butternut squash with wheat flour , good taste & color 😂😜
I like your ricepe,for me it is your creation , kenyan chapati,is not only in India but also Turkish and Marrocan people is making those kind of roti.Thanks for sharing your chapati recepe greeting from the Netherlands Amsterdam.I will try to make it❤
I'm eating chapatis for dinner. What a coincidence, I'll be preparing the pumpkin/butter nut chapatis next. Phil thanks for this recipe. 🤭 They look so soft.
Anytime gal and I hope you have a good one💕
Mmmm that looks delicious!! Thanks for sharing Phil. I love Kenya!
Mrembo, don't worry about those stupid comments, you are doing a fantastic job na hapa Kenya chapati zinaitwa chapati. We are not in India. Period.
Silly goose...
I loved your pumpkin recipe. First time I have seen it. Thanks for sharing it.
Nice. Instead of all purpose flour, use whole wheat flour to make Chapatis/ Paratha.
Thank you Phil, enjoyed how to make Pumpkin Chapati. God bless.
This aint chapati, it is rather parathas. Chapati is made out of wheat flour and not fried in oil. This is very much an indian recipe.. but i like the fact you tried making it.
Just subscribed because of Mayuguno . I love him & I have decided to support most Kenyans because of him.
Thanks to your channel, I never stop delighting my loved ones with new, interesting food)
Thank you for the lovely recipe! I use a potato peeler to peel pumpkin/butternut, it's super easy and fast 😊
I'm from South India. We call this "Poli' and done on festive days. Ww do with coconut/channa dal and Jaggery and it goes so well with melted ghee. And we make it on plaintain leaves, before transferring it to the hot tava for cooking
it was so lovely an nice to see you doing the chapatti like that my dear friend an u explain it very nice too see u again
India or Kenya or anyplace in the world, its always a delight to see people like and cook healthy and tasty veg food.
