I use this recipe and my husband says “it tastes just like my mom’s”, which is the highest form of compliment a wife can receive :). I generally don’t have curry leaves at home, so I skip that ingredient, and I add the garlic and onions as suggested. Great way to use leftover rotis and it’s a fairly quick recipe.
Thank you so much trying it and sharing your feedback really appreciate! 🙂
