I always have leftover chapati after mealtime and it becomes dry over time. I do a stir-fry, chapati upma or kothu with leftover chapati. Its a wonderful way to give life to dry chapatis. I make it all the time for my sons lunch box and he loves it. Here is how to do it.
Here is the recipe for soft chapati
Prep
Cut the chapati into small bits. Set aside.
Masala
Heat oil in a pan and add in the fennel seeds. Fennel seeds add a nice aroma and flavour to the kothu. Add in the sliced onions and saute till the onions are soft and starting to brown here and there. Add in the ginger garlic paste and saute for a minute.
Add in the chopped tomatoes, salt, turmeric powder, garam masala powder and red chilli powder. Saute for couple of minutes.
Note: The chapatis are already salted. So go easy on the salt.
Add in quarter cup of water, chopped curry leaves, mint leaves and simmer the gravy for five minutes.
Add in the chopped chapati / roti and mix well to combine.
Serve hot.
