TOMATO OMLETTE| Besan methi tamatar ke chilla recipe

 Tomato omelet is the vegetarian answer to the egg based breakfast staple omelette. Tomato omelette are prepared from a batter comprising of besan, tomato and chopped onions and then spread like an omelette on a hot pan and relished with ketchup.

My vesrion of tomato omlete is nutritious by tha addition of methi(fenugreek) leaves to omlete which adds the nutritive value to omlette.This is a good way of adding green leafy vegies in kids meal....The chickpea flour is the protein source and the tomato and coriander make it really tasty snack. One can have it at breakfast or even as a meal by itself.U can evn roll it in between bread slices......making a TOMATO OMLETTE sandwich...
