Wheat tortilla (paratha) fried in egg batter. Very tasty and easy to make. Ingredients:
3 cups whole wheat flour |
water, as required for making the dough |
3 tablespoons cooking oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
4 beaten eggs |
1 medium finely chopped onion |
1 tablespoon finely chopped green chili pepper |
1/4 inch grated fresh ginger |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/4 cup cooking oil |
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).
4. Spread onto the dough few drops of oil and roll it out into a circle.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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).
8. Remove from tawa when the paratha turns golden brown. Serve hot with fresh grounded pepper over it.
