  • Over the last five years, India has seen impressive economic growth as well as progress in terms of human development. The economy has experienced growth rates as high as 9 per cent in 2006-07, while the population below the poverty line has been gradually been falling. Nevertheless, crushing poverty and malnutrition are harsh realities for millions of women and children. Many inequities are tied to gender and class [source: UNICEF, read more: www.unicef.org/infobycountry/india_background.html]

  • Chapati or chapatti or chapathi is an unleavened flatbread (also known as roti) from the Indian subcontinent. Versions of it are found in Turkmenistan and in East African countries Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. In China there is also a similar type of flatbread called laobing. Chapatis are one of the most common forms in which wheat, the staple of northern South Asia, is consumed. Chapati is a form of roti or rotta (bread). The words are often used interchangeably. While roti, rotta refers to any flat unleavened bread, chapati is a roti made of whole wheat flour and cooked on a tava (flat skillet). Chapatis are made from a firm dough made from flour (whole grain common wheat), 'atta' in Urdu/Hindi/Punjabi/Bengali, and water. Some people also add salt and/or oil to the dough. Small portions of the dough are rolled out into discs much like a Mexican tortilla, using a rolling pin. The rolled-out dough is thrown on the preheated dry skillet and cooked on both sides. In some regions it is only partly cooked on the skillet, and then put directly on a high flame, which makes it blow up like a balloon. The hot air cooks the chapati rapidly from the inside. In some parts of northern India (e.g. Punjab) and Pakistan, this is called a phulka (that which has been inflated). [souce: Wikipadia]
