Ingredients

• 250 grams All-purpose flour
• 150 milliliters Water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Ghee or melted butter
• 4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 small Green chilies, finely chopped (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and mix until a dough forms.

Step 2

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 3

Divide the dough into four equal portions and shape them into balls.

Step 4

Coat each dough ball with a bit of vegetable oil, cover with a damp cloth, and let rest for at least 15 minutes.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs along with the chopped onion, green chilies (if using), and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 6

Once the dough has rested, roll out each ball as thin as possible on a lightly oiled surface.

Step 7

Heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.

Step 8

Place one rolled dough onto the pan. Pour some of the egg mixture onto the center of the dough.

Step 9

Fold the edges of the dough over the egg mixture to create a neat parcel.

Step 10

Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the roti is golden brown and the egg is cooked through.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining dough and egg mixture.

Step 12

Serve hot, optionally with a side of curry or chutney for dipping.
