Start by preparing the dough for the parathas by mixing 200 grams of atta (whole wheat flour) with a pinch of salt, 1 tablespoon of oil, and enough water to form a soft, pliable dough.
- 3
Knead the dough well, cover it, and let it rest for 20 minutes to make it easier to work with.
- 4
Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each one into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter.
- 5
Heat a tawa (griddle) and cook each paratha until golden brown spots appear on both sides, then set them aside.
- 6
In a bowl, beat 4 eggs with a pinch of salt and a dash of pepper for seasoning.
- 7
Heat a little oil on the same tawa, pour a portion of the beaten eggs to form a thin omelette, and quickly place a cooked paratha over the omelette while it's still cooking.
- 8
Flip the paratha along with the omelette and cook for another minute, letting the egg stick perfectly to the paratha.
- 9
Once done, remove the egg-coated paratha and place it on a plate.
- 10
Layer it with sliced onions, chopped green chillies, and a sprinkle of chaat masala for that tangy, spicy kick.
- 11
Add a few drops of lemon juice for brightness, then roll the paratha tightly, securing all those flavors inside.
- 12
Wrap half the roll in aluminum foil or a paper napkin for easy handling and serve immediately.
- 13
Repeat the process for the remaining parathas to make multiple rolls.
