Mix well the above ingredients and prepare a soft dough for chapatis and keep ready.
This will make about 10-12 chapatis.
Take a pan and add cooking oil and heat it.
When the oil becomes hot add all the masala powders and stir for 3-5 mts.
When the raw smell of the masala powder vanishes, then add all the vegetables and cook on low flame (as far as possible without water).
After the vegetables are cooked add the tomato puree and salt to taste. (Care should be taken while adding salt as some noodles have salt and some do not).
Once the tomato puree mixes well with the vegetables, then gradually and gently add the boiled noodles to this mixture.
Mix it gently taking care to ensure that noodles do not get smashed and become pulp.
After the noodles are also evenly coated with the spices and vegetables remove from fire and let it cool down.
Meanwhile take the wheat dough and start rolling out chapatis.
After you roll out the chappati, place 1-2 tbsp. of the noodle filling in the centre of the chapati and then cover it by bringing all its edges to the centre.
Now it will resemble a rectangle shape. Slightly pat it with the spatula.
Place this rectangle chapati on the hot tawa and roast it.
Drizzle a little ghee over it and then turn it on to the other side and again drizzle a little ghee. (In other words follow the same procedure as that of a chappati). Remove from tawa.
Your Chapati noodle cutlets are ready to be served. Follow the same procedure with the rest of the chappatis and noodle mixture Serve it hot or atleast warm (for best taste) with cold tomato ketchup.
This is a very healthy and filling snack that also substitutes for a meal.
