well, to be honest, i have made many recipes out of leftover bread slices. out of which most of them belong to snacks or deep-fried categories. i have posted very recipes which falls under the healthy breakfast section and i thought of sharing the bread paratha under that section. to be honest, i do not make the bread parantha regularly. i end up making either sandwich recipes or use the leftover bread slices for my dinner with a choice of curries. yet some times i end making these paratha’s as i run out of options for my morning breakfast. basically it is not due to the fact that i have some leftover bread slices, but to make something new and break the monotonous breakfast regime.
anyway, before concluding, i would like to add some tips, suggestions and variations for tasty bread paratha recipe. firstly, i would always recommend having white plain flour-based sandwich slices for any bread-based recipes. using multi-grain or wheat-based bread slices may give different taste. secondly, in terms of adding veggies, it is completely open-ended and you can experiment with your desired choices. i have added raw veggies and corn, but it can be further extended with other veggies. lastly, the paratha’s has to be served immediately once it is rolled and fried. otherwise due to the gluten, it may turn chewy and also rubbery.
