The best way to make use of your left over chapattis is to make a bowl of nutritious & delicious Upma for an evening tea time snack. The chapattis will not only be consumed in a jiffy, but you will have a wholesome snack or a breakfast for every one.
For non-vegetarians, shredded chicken or scrambled eggs are best options which can be added to the upma. If you happen to be more adventurous, then try some sliced salami or chopped sausages.
- 4-5 chapattis, shredded
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 green chilies, chopped
- 1" ginger, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup mixed veggies, finely chopped or frozen veggies

Heat oil and temper with mustard seeds. After it stops spluttering, add the asafoetida, urad dal, chana dal and curry leaves. Saute for a few seconds.
