Some important points before moving ahead with this recipe..


◾Don't soak Chapati in water for very long, just soak it for a min or two, depending on the thickness of your Chapati and then remove it from the water and discard the water which is used for soaking. 

◾Green chillies in good quantity works great in this recipe. 

◾Use of 1-2 tsp tamarind pulp works great, if tamarind pulp is available in your kitchen, go for it or adjust tomato quantity.

☑Ingredients required 

🔸4-5 Leftover or Fresh Chapati

🔸4-5 garlic cloves

◾Combine roughly chopped tomato, green chillies, coriander leaves and garlic cloves.


◾Pulse for 5-7 seconds as we need coarse paste. Keep it aside until called for.

◾Break the Chapati into bite size pieces or thin out into thin strips using a sharp knife or scissors.



◾Soak them in water for a min or two. The soaking time depends on the stiffness of the chapati. If Chapatis are soft, soak in water for a few seconds and immediately remove it, whereas if the Chapatis are dry and crisp soak it for a minute or two. Remove it from the water, keep it aside until called for.



♨Step 3 Cooking time


◾Heat the oil in a fry pan.


◾Add the coarse paste prepared in step no. 1.  Cook it for 2-3 minutes on high flame till the raw smell goes away, then add all the dry ingredients that is coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chilly powder and salt to taste.. 







◾Mix well, cook it for a minute or two. Now add soaked Chapati strips, gently mix it. Add ½ - 1 cup of water.  Let the mixture simmer over medium heat for 4-5 minutes or cook till liquid evaporates and Chapati are nicely cooked and coated with the spices.
