Shape the Paratha: Roll the dough into a thin, circular disc about 6-8 inches in diameter. Be gentle while rolling to maintain the softness of the dough.
Add the Egg Filling: Spoon a generous amount of the cooked egg filling in the center of the rolled dough. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a pocket. Pinch the edges together to seal the filling inside.
Flatten and Roll Again: Lightly dust the stuffed dough with flour and gently roll it out again into a larger, flat circle. Be careful not to press too hard so the egg filling doesn’t spill out.
Step 4: Cook the Parathas
Heat the Pan: Heat a tava, griddle, or non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of ghee or oil to grease the surface.
Cook the Paratha: Place the rolled paratha onto the hot pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes on the first side until bubbles start to form.
Flip and Cook the Other Side: Flip the paratha over and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes. Then, add a small amount of ghee or oil to the edges of the paratha and cook for another 2-3 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula to help it puff up and get crispy.
Continue flipping and cooking until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Repeat: Repeat the same process with the remaining dough and egg filling.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Serve the Egg Parathas with Liquid Dough hot with a side of yogurt, chutney, or pickles for extra flavor. You can also enjoy them with a hot cup of chai or a refreshing salad.
Garnish with extra fresh cilantro or a squeeze of lemon juice for an added touch.
Tips and Variations:
Spicy Kick: If you like your egg parathas spicier, add a pinch of red chili powder, black pepper, or extra green chilies to the egg mixture.
Add Vegetables: You can enhance the filling by adding finely chopped vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, or grated carrots. These add extra flavor and nutrition.
Vegan Version: For a vegan version, substitute the eggs with a tofu or chickpea flour (besan) scramble, and use a non-dairy milk and yogurt in the dough.
Make It Cheesy: You can add some shredded cheese to the egg mixture for a gooey, cheesy filling inside the paratha.
