This is an african version of beef tacos. Recipe courstesy of chef keith famie. I've added some optional ingredients for topping these tacos that aren't true to the african way, but might be tasty! P.s. I can never seem to find red chilies in our markets, so i sub jalapenos.

Steps

---

Chapatis:.

---

In a mixing bowl , use your hands to combine the flour , water , salt and 2 t of the olive oil.

---

Mix until well combined and a sticky dough forms.

---

Remove the dough from the bowl and place it on a floured surface.

---

Knead the dough for about 3 to 5 minutes.

---

Refrigerate for 20 minutes.

---

Return the dough to the floured work surface and roll it into 4 six-inch circles / discs.

---

Put the remaining 2 t of olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat and make sure to get really hot before adding the chapatis , or the chapatis will soak up the oil instead of browning properly.

---

Put one or two chapatis into the hot pan and brown both sides of the chapatis.

---

Remove from pan and keep warm and do the other two.

---

I also like to lightly salt the cooked chapatis.

---

Filling:.

---

In a hot saute pan over medium heat , saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil until the onion gets translucent , about 2 minutes.

---

Add the chiles and saute for 1 minute.

---

Add the ground beef and continue to saute u.
