6. 6

   Add chopped tomato, turmeric powder, chili powder, and garam masala. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and the oil separates, about 5-7 minutes.

   Kokin vinkki: Mashing the tomatoes with the back of your spoon helps them break down faster.

7. 7

   Stir in the chopped carrot, green beans, and green peas. Add salt and water, then cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

   Noin 6 min

   Kokin vinkki: Do not overcook the vegetables; they should retain a slight bite.

8. 8

   Add the torn parotta pieces to the vegetable mixture. Mix well, ensuring the parotta is coated evenly with the spices and vegetables.

   Noin 3 min

   Kokin vinkki: Use two spatulas or a chopping motion with a flat spatula to combine everything thoroughly.

9. 9

   Continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring and 'chopping' the mixture to combine, until the parotta is heated through and slightly crispy.

   Noin 4 min

   Kokin vinkki: This 'chopping' action is traditional for kothu parotta, helping to break down the parotta further and integrate ingredients.
