That looks delicious and interesting, i make parathas mashing the rice and blending it with the dough. Never used it a stuffing though.

Havent heard about this though the first 2 are something I do too!
Nice idea of incorporating rice n wheat together :)

One more idea for recycling rice is to mash the rice, add some salt, chopped onions and make them into small balls. Sun dry them for a day or 2 and then use them as vadagams (rice crackers)

Happy cooking :)
