<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This above recipe serves 2 approx.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Leftover chapatis work great for this recipe. You may use any kind of chapati- wheat or multi grain. Tortilla works but try using multigrain tortilla which suits well of this recipe.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Dark soy sauce adds color to the dish- I’ve used Chilli soy sauce which has chilli oil in it making it more spicy. Any kind if fine. Light soy sauce also works just the color will be slightly different.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Red chili sauce is for color and to make the dish spicy. If you prefer it less spicy try using tomato sauce or ketchup.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sugar is added to keep the color of the veggies intact while cooking.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">White pepper powder gives the touch of chinese to this dish, its ok to use black pepper  if you don’t have that.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I’ve seen coriander leaves added to many Indo Chinese dishes in restaurants and kind of like the taste. Its purely optional you may just stick to spring onions for garnish.</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This dish will make a great lunch box – its colorful, healthy and stylish!</span></li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; list-style: disc inside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This recipe is more like Kothu chapati except made fusion way. Make it masala chapati by adding sambar powder, or kothu chapati strips with meat masala powder or make it North Indian style adding pav bhaji masala… the possibilities are infinite!</span></li>

  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Take toor dal with 2 cups
  of water in pressure cooker and cook in high flame for 2-3 whistles.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Remove the lid and add
  the rice and chopped vegetables except raw mango. Cook it adding 6 cups of
  water & salt.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">After rice is cooked,
  open the lid and add the sautéed onions, chillies, tamarind extract mixture
  & raw mango pieces & salt if needed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Allow the raw mango to
  cook well. Rice absorbs all the tamarind extract mixture. Use fork like ladle
  to mix the rice. Simmer the flame & boil for few minutes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Lastly add grated coconut
  & tempered ingredients. Mix well, check for taste. Give a standing time
  of 1-2 hours & serve with vathal/vadam.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">If the rice is too spicy,
  add little tamarind extract & grated coconut. It balances the taste.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">If the rice is too tangy,
  add some chili powder mixed in water & boil for some time with rice. Add
  little salt if needed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Adding a handful of
  drumstick leaves & arai keerai is suggested for this rice. But I didn’t
  add both as I didn’t have the stock.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Raw mango is purely
  optional but it gives a nice flavor to this rice. If u don’t add raw mango pieces,
  use big lemon size tamarind.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 3pt; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "symbol"; font-size: 10pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal;">                    
  </span></span><span style="font-family: "comic sans ms"; font-size: 12pt;">Adjust the quantity of
  red chillies based on ur taste buds. But use tamarind in correct quantity if
  u reduce chillies.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
