Chilli Paratha Recipe
Chilly paratha is a quick and yummy little recipe to turn the dull and boring looking cold chapatis into an interesting filling meal. It is essentially a plain paratha shredded into small, bite-sized pieces mixed with sauteed onions, tomatoes, and chili powder. It is usually garnished with coriander leaves or green onions. Often, this scrumptious dish is served at restaurants with a side of raitha, or a mix of salty yogurt and cold vegetables.

This recipe s good.
Instead of sauting tomatoes and all masalas u can grind nicely a mixture of the following items as given below:
tomatoes 3-4in nos,dry red chillies/ red chilli powder, garam masala, saunf, some cashews,a little of black peppers(optional).
u can use this mixture in place of chopped tomatoes nd masalas. I assure u... It tastes better:-)
