Recipe- Stir Fried Roti Noodles

Using left over food and to feed that to fussy children is a big challenge.As we don’t want to throw the leftover food so we often try to create something new and interesting from it so that children didn’t easily recognize it as leftover food.

I use to add the left over daal in chapati dough and dry curries to stuff and make parathas and tikkis, rice being the easiest one can be used to make masala bhath ,fried rice ,pakora etc which children really enjoy eating.
