Conclusion and Tips

Today’s recipe is one that is close to my heart. I spent most of my college days eating this Indian-style dish on the streets of Karnataka. The overwhelming aroma of the street food is one to remember. However, we can make this incredibly decorous dish at home using very few ingredients. As mentioned earlier, this is a traditional South Indian dish and has a lot of South Indian flavour. I would recommend using coconut oil instead of sunflower oil or olive oil to get a more authentic flavour and aroma.

To highlight, you can make this dish at home using leftover rotis or parottas. However, I insist on using handmade flatbread for it. If you are in a hurry and can not make Rotis or flatbread, You can also use store-bought parottas. As I mentioned earlier, we can make this dish using chicken, egg or just vegetables. Although, for making the chicken version of this recipe, you can simply replace the mutton mice with small chicken pieces or minced chicken. However, for the vegetable or vegan version of this dish, ad vegetables like cabbage, capsicum and onion to make it flavourful.
