Great dish from leftover chapathis!

From Bhuvana - Thank you!

This is an excellent filling meal, if you also break an egg into it towards the end and stir well - it becomes like kothu parotta, the beloved dish of hostel days :)

The quantity below is enough for 2 people - am counting 2 chapathis per person. I made them fresh when I tried this out.

Ingredients

4 Chapathis (either fresh or extra from the previous meal)
1 big onion
2 tomatoes (you can use hot tomato sauce instead of fresh tomato)
3 green chilies
1 Tea-spoon pepper powder
Curry leaves
Coriander leaves
Oil and mustard for seasoning
Salt to taste

Preparation

1. Cut the onions, green chilies, tomatoes separately and keep it aside.
2. Cut chapathi into small pieces and keep aside.
3. Take a non-stick or any kadai (pan), add oil and mustard for seasoning
4. Add green chilies, curry leaves, onions and sauté. Fry until the onions turn brown.
5. Add tomatoes & salt to taste and cook well.
6. Add chapathi pieces and pepper.
7. Keep it in low flame for 2 minutes and mix well. Add corainder leaves at the end.

[Note: Use less chili or pepper powder, if you don’t want it spicy.]
