A plain roti or phulka paired with basic Indian sabzi or dal, or both - there's nothing as comfortable as this. Light, fluffy phulka is a must no matter sabzi we make. Most of the Indians have phulka in all the three meals of the day. Yes, it can get monotonous and boring, but if you change the flour of your roti, you might get some different flavours with the same comfort of your regular meal.
