This is India, not the West. We have amazing breakfast food from across the country – parantha, idlis, dhoklas, and countless others – that is healthy, tasty, affordable, and has a shelf life. Our moms make amazing takeaway parantha rolls with leftover sabzis that taste fab. Please be creative. Spare us the sandwich. We can do better,” wrote Radhika Gupta in her post.
