CHAPATI NOODLES

     I had chapati noodles for the first time in one of my cousin’s place. Then saw this recipe in Vijay Tv’s Suvai Ula. I had some left over 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.
