Cooking chapati in Nairobi, Kenya

This photo comes to us from Isabelle Prondzynski (prondis_in_kenya).

Cooking chapati

She says, “Cooking chapati on a jiko. Laborious work!

The charcoal fired jiko drops its ashes below; the little door at the bottom regulates the heat if necessary. The chapatis are cooked on a thick iron griddle which spreads the heat evenly and is used only for this purpose.”

I say, “It looks delicious!”
