Not sure what to do with all of this week's CSA share? Make chawt!
Chawt is a favorite snack in India. Since you can make it with almost anything, the dish is especially good for recycling leftovers.
I love making and baking chawt with home-baked bread and whatever vegetables I have around. Here is a quick and simple recipe.
