Spicy Chapati Crumble (fancy name for Vaghareli Bhakri) is a clever way to use up leftover Chapatis or Rotis. With Onion, Potatoes and flavorful spices, you can create a fresh new dish. Leftover ka makeover, that’s how I’d describe this dish and I love it when we are able to do that…no one likes leftovers so recreating a new dish out of it, helps freshen it and we don’t end up wasting food. Try this delicious recipe as a snack at the next “tea time get-together”.
