Vegetable Kothu Parotta (Veg Kothu Parotta Recipe)
Vegetable kothu parotta is a tasty and popular South Indian street food recipe made with shredded parotta, spices and vegetables. This dish is prepared at roadside thattu kadai stalls where it is cooked on a hot iron tawa and mixed quickly. Kothu parotta is one of my favorite recipes and is also a great way to use up leftover parottas at home.
