Why did this mega chapatti fail? expert opinion

Many food experts gave their technical opinion after watching the video. According to him:

1. The thickness of the dough was uneven

so big Mega Chapati It is very difficult to maintain uniform thickness. This creates difficulty in cooking and turning.

2. The angle of flipping was wrong

Synchronizing 20 pedals together is not an easy task. It is possible that some of the paddles rose first, causing the chapati to become unbalanced.

3. There was less binding in the flour

Especially in larger rotis, the dough should be more elastic. Failure to do so will cause the chapatti to break while turning.

4. Temperature control was difficult

It is almost impossible to keep such a large surface evenly heated, so the heating was also uneven.

All these reasons together have led to this Mega Chapati The mission failed.
