Something unusual and amazing. I never thought thepla and potato bhaji can make such a wonderful wrap. The chilli sauce at the base along with the veggies gives an aazing spiciness and crunch to it. If you are bored of having thepla and bhaji, you can try this new type of wrap and i am sure everyone will love it.
This is my Sunday Favourite Breakfast....i love it...better than having thepla and potato bhaji...
