Wheat tortilla (paratha) fried in egg batter. Very tasty and easy to make

• Ready In: 50 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 3  cups whole wheat flour
•  water, as required for making the dough
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 4  beaten eggs
• 1  medium  finely chopped onion
• 3  finely chopped green chili peppers
• 1⁄4 inch  grated gingerroot
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1⁄2 cup  cooking oil
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. In a bowl beat the eggs, onion, green chili, ginger, black pepper, and salt.
2. Mix flour, oil, salt thoroughly in a bowl and then add sufficient water to make dough, knead for 5 minutes, cover and keep it aside for 15 minutes.
3. Divide dough into small size balls (like golf balls), flatten each ball into a small circle (around 2 inch diameter)and roll it out into a circle.
4. Heat a tawa (flat griddle) and when tawa is very hot, place the rolled out dough on it. Leave for half a minute and then turn over.
5. The paratha will now slowly start to bubble up. Now add a teaspoon of oil onto the top of the paratha and turn over. The paratha immediately starts to blow up.
6. Take 2 tbsp of the egg batter and spread it evenly over the paratha. Add 1/2 tsp of oil and flip it over. Fry till the egg is cooked (like 1 min).
7. Remove from tawa when the paratha turns golden brown. Serve hot with fresh grounded pepper over it.
