TAVA DAL ROTI

I had left over chapati and dal of the previous day in the fridge.  Since the dal was very tasty, I did not feel like wasting it by simply throwing it in the dustbin.  Further, I was very lazy to  make food on that particular day, I decided to make use of this left over dal and roti.

Used very simple items which are available at home and very easily could make it.  You have to serve this very hot I mean tava to the plate to relish this.  Things are not wasted at the same time getting a new recipe and dish for you which is very healthy too.

Let us look at the recipe now:
