Kothu Chapathi

This recipe is the variation of the usual kothu parotta where I have used Chapathis instead of the parottas and hence a healthier version.I have added veggies to make it a more healthier one and it turns out to be a perfect tiffin for kids as well as adults.This is also an excuse to finish off those leftover chapathis.I even make these with any leftover rotis or even with ‘godamb ada’ (its a simple roti kind of thing but the dough is kind of loose with shredded coconut added and fried until crispy in a bit of oil. Will post the recipe sometime later). Lets get into the recipe now….

Now create a well in the center of the mixture in the pan and break the egg into this and stir it continuously on high flame to cook the egg fine.
