My mhave used to make it with choona(coconut+jaggery mixture,no need to cook..add few drops ghee, few drops honey, add the square pcs of leftover chapathis..i loved this version when i was younger.)Tku very much.
Best Regards,
Purnima.

yes i think im going to try this out. lookes pretty interesting. heres another idea for leftover chapathis.
make a paste of redchilles and garlic.
in the night fold the chapthis so they form a half moon shape so that the next day when you want to use the from breakfast they are in that shape. in the morning. smear a little butter and this paste int ot he inside oft he chapathi . hten fold the half moon shape in to the conical shape again smear some garlic mix in between the fold. now on a tawa put a little butter and fry this conical shape until alittle crispy on both sides. you can even give the kids this for lunch . the crunch remains and you get thekids to eats rotis without too much fuss.

the seond thing i like to do with left over rotis from the afternoon is to cutthem in tosay half inch strips and then cut those strips in to half inch squares. in a skillet. take some oil add onions saute then add some tomato saute then some capsicum and last some chicken and some tomato sauce and some soya if you like it. i like to add some worchestshire sauce it gives it that different taste altogether.in the end add the rotis pcs. tosst the whole thing for abit and you have a one meal dish. which has carbs, proteins and very good nutritional value.

Hello Shilpa

Chapathi upma is really new to me. Gives me an option to convert into a mouth watering recipe with left over chapathis.
Try out this oil free raagi upma, very simple and tasty too:

Not even a single drop of oil.

Thanks a lot dear. One day I prepared chapathis for my hubby and as usual
became very hard, not able to eat at all. Next day I saw this recipe and tried
and gave it to my hubby and his friends. It was just easy to make and tastey.
Now there is no tension if my chapathis become hard.
I am telling all my friends about this cooking web site and I am trying many more dishes form this site.

Thanks Sudha.
Vaishali, Thanks for reminding me. Yes, I had forgotten it completely . Both my wedding anniversary and bloggiversary are next week. I had not noticed this before. This blog was a gift to me from my hubby(but he never mentioned it to me) and I realised it just now .

As I can see, you will complete one year of blogging at the end of this month. I thought I should remind you. Just in case. And hey, we want a special treat for your bloggiversary.

Thanks Sudha.
Aruna, it does not become hard over time (that is if it is made properly). So as I said, a small quantity of water should be sprinkled while making it (something like bread upma) and it should not be fried for long after putting chapathi.
