Chapati noodles is an excellent way to use up the leftover chapathi. Kids can have it without any complains, with added vegetables. Give leftover a nutritious twist.

I had chapati noodles or you may call it masala chapathi upma for the first time in one of my cousin’s place. Then saw this recipe in Vijay Tv’s Suvai Ula. I had some leftover chapathis today morning and wanted to try this and have it for lunch. I just made it the usual way I make fried rice / this one . This is sure a kid’s menu and you can give this to your kid when he come back hungry from school.

Even though you can roughly make enough chapathi for your family sure you cant always be perfect. Also if you have guests for dinner, you never can assume and make perfect counts for them. It is very normal to have leftover chapathi in your kitchen. So don’t worry ever if you have so. A good knife and soft left over chapathi, you can cut into really thin strips and jazz it up with masalas and vegetables.

    Delectable clicks…Its difficult to guess there is chapathi in it from the first pic. I usually make it the kothu paratta kind. This is sure to tempt kids.

    Dear Raks,

    I have been checking your methods for the last few months…….. and certainly u have turned me into a reasonable cook from a very dull cook. Truly hats off to you.

    Do keep up this excellent work on this beautiful art. I will keep visiting you at least two times a day, and for that reason i see that am never out of net connectivity.

    Cheers
    Priya

    Hi… thanks…

    i am looking for a 'Main Course – Veg' in order to participate in a food contest to be judged by chefs from reputed hotels.

    I am considering this recipe for that. Please suggest if something else comes to any of your mind, that is presentable, creative, tasty and rich.

    Thank you Rak for the fabulous recipe. I was breaking my head over unused tortillas and was tired of wraps when i landed on this page.

    The dish came out fabulous and was a super hit at home. Thank you once again.
