Kothu Roti/Chapati

Spread what you love

Kothu roti/chapati – Have some leftover chapatis and sabji? Make this yummy and easy dish. As the saying goes “Love food not waste”. I reuse and don’t let it get wasted. With chapatis i make kothu varieties or simply roll it up with sugar. With leftover idlis, i cook idli upma, fried idlis, podi idli, idli sandwich so on.

Kothu chapathi

Just like street food style kothu parotta, we need the curry to bring in additional flavor else it would be dry. Whatever the leftover  curry/sabji you have, can be used. Adjust spice level of kothu depending on the curry spice.
