Waiting for a cook
Botswana
Diphaphatha (one is a phaphatha) are small, flat, round breads cooked on a dry pan or griddle rather than baked or fried. They are the Botswana breakfast and tea-time bread: split and buttered, spread with jam, or stuffed with chicken livers or a spoon of stew for a ten o'clock snack. The dough is plain flour, baking powder, a little sugar and salt, and milk or water; it takes half an hour from bowl to plate.
The draft was written from 4 published sources and holds 6 ingredients and 6 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
