Notes

  1. Make sure sweet potatoes are cooked well else it will be difficult to mash or grate.
  2. This sweet potato chapati (thepla) is naturally sweet so adjust the spices accordingly.
  3. You can add green leafy vegetables like finely chopped spinach or methi (fenugreek leaves).
  4. You can also add some grated carrots or beets for this paratha
  5. I have prepared this sweet potato roti without adding any sugar or jaggery. If you like you can add a little bit of jaggery/sugar.

SNACK – Banana Chips

SNACK – Peach - I have sliced the peach and packed it into the box. Always try to use local and seasonal fruits.

Prep Work For The Previous Evening

  1. You can boil and grate the sweet potato the previous night and refrigerate. You can also prepare the sweet potato dough the previous night if you are busy the next morning.

Notes

  • Packed in a stainless steel tiffin box called Lunchbots which is Eco-Friendly, Dishwasher Safe, BPA-Free and is easily available on Amazon. Do not use plastic lunch boxes to your kids, they are toxic.
  • You can increase or decrease quantity based on your child’s appetite.
