Chilli parotta

The first time I had this street food - Chilli Parotta and was completely amazed with this one pot meal. This recipe is made with left over south indian style flaky Parotta and it’s either called as Chilli Parotta or Kothu Parotta. Chilli Parotta is usually cut into bite able sizes and Kothu Parotta is further minced while cooking. This is one pot meal and can have variations with eggs or shredded chicken, beef or mutton. This yummy recipe can be prepared in a giffy, if all the chopping is done in advance.
