Stuffed Egg Paratha

Though I had a hard time trying to stuff the egg mixture perfectly inside the wheat flour dough, once done and cooked , the taste pretty much made up for all my efforts. Scrambled egg is my favourite egg recipe. So imagine my happiness when i realized that i could even use it as a stuffing for paratha. And if you have some left over scrambled eggs after doing the stuffing, well, just have it with the stuffed egg paratha like I did. A tasty Paratha recipe which is a must try.
Ingredients
Wheat flour-1/2 cup,
Fresh eggs' 2,
Water: almost 1/4 cup,
chilly powder-1tsp
Pepper powder-1Tsp
Salt as required
Cooking Oil ( or Ghee)
Instructions
In a bowl take flour and add little salt to it.
Sprinkle little water at a time and knead a soft dough.
Cover and let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes take out the dough and knead it once again.
Divide the dough into balls
Take one part and roll the dough to a ball.
Dip this ball in dry flour and make a oval shape.
Press it gently with your fingers yo widen it.  Put a mix of scrambled egg, chilly powder, coriander leaves and pepper powder in its centre and cover it with another dough made in the same way. Now press the edges of both the dough together with the egg mixture secured inside. Now roll it gently  to required shape.Heat a Tawa yo burning hot.Cover the paratha and cook it for 1 -2 minutes from both sides.
Gently press with the spatula from both side to make sure paratha is all cooked from inside.
