Guessing they don't sell Chapatis in your country :giggling:

I think the main thing you eat chapati with is curry, I don't think you can have it like pizza ;D

But then again, I'm no expert, I'm not even a fan of chapati/roti/parata/naan. Talk about having too much names.. :exhausted

Except in Indian restaurants, no one sell Chapatis in Indonesia. But Roti Canai is popular in Sumatra island, it eaten with sauce.

However, Martabak/Murtabak is very popular in my place, you can find it in everywhere in Indonesia, although maybe not popular in India. Actually this is Arab food, and introduced by people from Arab community in early of 20th century. But, I don't know why, people in my place call Murtabak as Indian food. Might be because those Arabs looked like people from North India, who now known as Pakistan.

Sometime people in My place cannot distinguish, which Arab, which Pakistani. Me too. My brother have a close friend who tall, has 'Arab face' and Muslim name. I thought he is Arab until my brother told me "No, he's Pakistani".

The difference between chapati's and paratha is like the difference between fries and chips, both the same thing in essence, but just cooked and prepared in varying ways.=

Ahah! That made me laugh.
 
I thought they were the same thing? :unsure:

Anyway, we say 'rooti', not 'roti'. Not sure if its pronounced the same in any other dialect!

Roti and chappati are both the same, just different languages.. it's just a bread of some kind..there's so many different types of breads out there, some are healthy while others are not, the 'tasty' ones are usually unhealthy, sometimes depending on how it's been cooked..imagine frying chocolate..
Guys you now what, you Should try spreading chocolate on a chappati or bread of your choice and frying it or however and eating it with whatever one prefers..:hiding:
 
roti isnt like bread, bread is different n roti is different chocolate on chapati wouldnt taste good trust me we eat roti with curry like potatoe curry and chicken curry etc
 
Indian roti's are different to Pakistani roti's. Indian ones are really thin. I crave a Pakistani roti now... might have to make a trip to the local kebabish K.O. :D

When you name it chapati,it was meant to be thin not thick.May be you are confusing it with "Naan" which is a lot thicker than chapati.I love Afghani roti,Afghan refugees had finally returned to their homes but i still miss their breads....amazingly tasty
