Description
Chapathi noodles . A recipe I came up with when I had a lot of chapathis left over from the previous day dinner table . Usually I make kotthu parota or frankie’s but wanted to do some thing different and this just sparked in my mind With a bright effortless idea to suit every occasion at any level . Gave it a try and was pitch perfect . You can feed a crowd with this magical left over recipe . In fact my girl keeps asking me to make it when ever she is here . Sure this trick will work with fussy eating children as well and will work wonders as a packed lunch to school . Every time this dish is on the table , its brought me high praise and numerous accolades . ( no self praising please :-))) ) . Do give it a try folks , sure the praise and accolades will follow you too .
