Where to find the best chapati in Singapore, and many reviews would lead you to this place at one of the corner shop along Serangoon Road in Little India.
All the chapatis are freshly made here and served warm. Most people would recommend you to pair your chapati with their mutton keema gravy.
Mutton keema is basically a mix of minced mutton, potatoes green peas in masala curry. So you just need to pinch a piece from your chapati and dip into it. It is spicy but not too much, and you could taste the sweetish from the potato and green peas.
Their freshly made unleavened flatbread chapati has a soft chewy texture that tears easily, and hot off the grill, has a lovely smoky bready grainy savoury sweet aroma.
.
Largely unchanged since patriarch Iftekhar Ahmad set up the stall in the 1960s, his grandsons today carry on the traditional receipe, making chapati using only wheat flour, water, and secret kneading techniques know only to their family.
.
The most popular pairing is with mutton keema (SGD $3.50), a rich curry of minced mutton, diced potatoes, and garden peas, bold with meaty savoury salty spicy notes. Stewed for up to 3 hours, so succulent.

Yes, 2 nett. Ridiculous value for money. The sauce was ok, got a slight watery taste and one of the spices was stronger than the rest
Not gonna lie if this is the best then I guess chapati not my thing. It's soft but doughy. Then again people have mentioned not everyone likes chapati lol
Very, very tender. It's all connective tissue left at this point and I really enjoyed it. The saltish sauce was decent but not that impressive
