 1.    Since chapatti has salt, don’ t add too much salt. 

 2.    You can add veggies of your choice and adjust the quantity of veggies according to your taste. 

3.    Chapatti strips and veggies should not be very soft, it should be crunchy as in vegetable fried rice. If you want a more soft texture, you can sprinkle water while cooking.
