Kothu Chapati


Kothu means chopped roti in Tamil. Kothu chapati is made with chopped chapati, spices and veggies. When I moved to Bangalore for my first job I came across this tasty dish. It was a regular on the menu in the Dosa corners. However parathas where used instead of chapatis . 

It’s the best way to use up left over chapatis. You can ready in an instant and doesn’t really need any special ingredient.  You can optionally use egg ,grated paneer /cheese  and chicken .

Method
1.       Chop the left over chapatis .
