chilli parotta recipe | chilli paratha recipe | chilli kothu parotta with detailed photo and video recipe. an easy, simple and spicy street food recipe made with malabar parotta and chinese sauces. it is an ideal snack recipe made with leftover parotta which is sliced and tossed in sweet and spicy indo chinese sauces. the recipe comes from the streets of tamilnadu and very much inspired from srilanka’s kothu rotti recipe.
as i mentioned earlier, the recipes are very much inspired from the popular srilankan kothu rotti recipe. basically, in kothu rotti the roti or paratha is finely sliced or chopped with purpose based knife. it is later spiced with meat-based spicy curry, particularly the chicken curry or chicken saar. whereas in this recipe, the kerala or maida based layered paratha is roughly chopped and tossed with a chilli manchurian sauce. the dish should be the same as any other chilli variant, yet different due to the slices of parotta. for instance, when the cubes of paneer, or mushroom served with chilli sauce, it comes with just chilli taste. but with parotta slices, it would contain both the taste and flavour of parotta and also the chilli sauce.
anyway, i would like to conclude the recipe with some tips, suggestions and variant for chilli parotta recipe. firstly, the recommend bread for this is layered plain flour-based malabar parotta and it should be an ideal choice. having said that, you can use wheat flour-based paratha or even roti. secondly, the recipe can be easily experimented by adding different types of hero ingredients like paneer, mushroom and even meat. having said that do not overdo it and add it as supporting ingredients. lastly, the recipe has to be served warm and immediately. hence you may need to plan it accordingly.
