This cookbook lists 10 coloured chapattis. Natural colouring agents are mixed in with the flour. The following coloured breads are listed in this cookbook: 

1.: Pale brown chapatti  does not use any colouring. The natural colour of all purpose flour gives a pale brown flatbread.

2.:  Golden yellow chapatti uses saffron soaked in warm milk to get its golden hue.

3.:  Yellow chapatti uses turmeric.

4.:  Pink chapatti  gets its colour from beetroot.

5.: Pale orange chapatti uses mashed carrots.

6.:  Green chapatti gets its colour from spinach puree.

7.: Speckled chapatti uses crushed black pepper.

8.:  Pale red chapatti uses tomato puree.  

9.:  Brown chapatti gets its colour from coriander - cumin powder and garam masala.

10.:   Speckled Red chapatti uses the bright red Kashmiri chili powder for its colour.
