Doky Dorcas, a Kenyan content creator and chef, has officially broken the Guinness World Record for the fastest time to make three chapatis, bringing the coveted title home.

In a stunning display of culinary speed, Kenyan chef Doky Dorcas has cooked her way into the Guinness World Records. She shattered the previous record for the fastest time to prepare three chapatis, completing the task in a blistering two minutes and 26 seconds on Monday, December 15th.
This achievement is more than just a personal victory; it places Kenya at the heart of a global conversation about culinary skill and cultural pride. Dorcas's new record slices a significant 44 seconds off the previous time of three minutes and 10.22 seconds, set by Ugandan YouTuber Raymond Kahuma in November 2023.
The record attempt, held under the stringent supervision of Guinness World Records officials, required Dorcas to prepare the dough, roll it out, and cook all three flatbreads to perfection against the clock. A video that surfaced after the event captured the intensity of the moment, showing her focused and efficient technique that ultimately secured the world title.
Her victory adds her to a growing list of Kenyans who hold world records, a testament to the nation's diverse talents. This includes marathoner Eliud Kipchoge, the first person to run a marathon in under two hours, and environmentalist Truphena Muthoni, who holds the record for the longest continuous tree hug.
While Guinness World Records does not offer cash prizes for such feats, the recognition itself is a significant accomplishment. For many Kenyans, Dorcas's win is a moment of national pride, reclaiming a record for a beloved staple food that is central to households across the country.
The friendly culinary rivalry in the region has been heating up. The former record holder, Raymond Kahuma, is also known for creating the largest Ugandan Rolex (a chapati rolled with eggs and vegetables) and had an unsuccessful, but costly, attempt at making the world's largest chapati in Kenya, an endeavor that reportedly cost over KES 1.1 million.
As Kenya celebrates this new record, Doky Dorcas's achievement serves as an inspiration, proving that world-class talent can be found in the everyday skills that define our culture and bring us together.
