Roti Noodles

What is meant by Roti Noodles? Simple, it means that chapati is cut in the shape of noodles and then made in a way the noodles are made.

Roti Noodles, though a wonderful snack cum meal but it is also excellent for kids who throw tantrums in eating chapatis. Once you make these then they will always ask for more. In that case, do not use leftover chapatis, instead, make fresh chapatis, let them cool down and then make these.

Sometime back, my sister-in-law, Prashima tried these Roti Noodles for her 2-year-old daughter and was all gaga for it. She was happy as her daughter easily ate 2 to 3 chapatis but in the form of Roti Noodles. She said that even after that her daughter would demand more of these. So, a win-win situation for both moms and kids.

FAQs

Q) What if I have only 1 or 2 leftover chapatis?

For making Roti Noodles, you need at least 4 to 6 chapatis. Making these with just 1 or 2 chapatis is not worth at all. So, what to do? In this case, you have 2 options. The first option is to make Roti Quesadillas. But if you want to make Roti Noodles only, then freeze the leftover chapati/s. When you have collected at least 6 or more depending upon how much you need then take out the chapatis from the freezer, let them thaw and then cut strips and proceed.

Q) Can I make this with fresh chapatis?

 As we need to cut the strips of chapati, therefore using fresh chapatis is not a very good idea. This is because they tend to break as the fresh chapatis are very soft. Therefore either use leftover chapatis or make chapatis a few hours ahead and then make these noodles.

  1. Best made with leftover rotis as the fresh rotis are too soft and tend to break while tossing.
