SPICY LEFTOVER CHAPATTIS / PHODNICHI POLI

Coming up the recipe of the day ,it is nothing to do with diet food or wonder milkshakes. Instead it has got something to do with the leftovers……yeah, leftover chapatis.  Chapatis are abundantly available in almost every Indian household. Though not treated as very important by themselves, their absence would be terrible at our dinner tables. Won’t it? Believe it or not, but you can make numerous dishes by using leftover chapatis . Here I am sharing a recipe which is made at my place traditionally with the leftover chapatis right from my grandmother. We all love the dish which is not made with very rich ingredients but tastes awesome. In summer, mostly we prepare it and served with the onion, raw mango [ kacchi kairi] ,freshly made mango pickle,  the newly made wheat kurdai. I want you once try it, but it should be served hot only. Today I am sharing this because my husband insisted me to do so. In my family and relatives everyone likes it and we had kept its name on our family name as “ SHINGNE PLATE”.
