- Beat Egg and add all the remaining ingredients in it.The egg filling is ready. The mixture made of 1 egg can be filled in 2 parathas. So adjust the quantity accordingly. Keep this aside.
- Divide the dough into equal size portions and make lime sized balls.
- Roll out a ball into a 4-5 inch disc.
- Drizzle few drops of oil onto the rolled out chapati and evenly coat it all over.
- Fold the disc into half forming a semi-circle, coat the surface with few more drops of oil.
- Again fold the semi-circle into half forming a triangle.
- Dip this triangle into the dry flour and coat all the sides.
- Roll it out again with a rolling pin. Try to maintain the triangular shape.
- Place this rolled out triangular paratha onto a hot tava or griddle and flip it in a minute.
- Cook the other side for just half a minute.
- With the help of a butter knife or the handle of the spoon or fork, gently open up the top layer of the paratha to form a pocket where we can pour our filling.
- Pour in half of the egg mixture into the pocket. Do not press the paratha at this time , the mixture might ooze out.
- Let it cook on low-medium heat for about half a minute till the egg inside is semi cooked.
- Sprinkle few drops of oil on the surface of the paratha and gently flip making sure the egg filling doesn't ooze out.
- Let it cook on low-med heat, pressing slightly until the egg is completely cooked inside.
- Serve hot with green chutney or pickle or curds.
