From time to time, Malayali's favourite ubiquitous flatbread porotta is accused of being unhealthy. Regardless, we love it, especially when it teams up with beef curry. Our love for porotta has even urged many to come up with different varieties of the dish. If you are in the mood to try porotta without eggs, try this sweet milk porotta. Here's the recipe:
