Method:
• Stack 2 to 3 chapatis and cut them into 4 squares, using a sharp kitchen knife.
• Cut each quarter in half and cut lengthwise again into thin strips.
• Heat oil in wok or nonstick pan; add onion, garlic, and ginger until they turn golden brown. Now add the carrots and cabbage, and sauté them on high flame. Add the capsicum and spring onion and sauté for a minute.
• Add the soy sauce, tomato ketchup, pepper powder, and mix well. Now add the chapatti strips and sauté for a minute.

Notes:
• You can Indian-ize the recipe using sambhar powder and other traditional Indian spices.
