For the Dough
Maida – 2 cups
Ghee – 1 tbsp
Sugar – 1 tbsp
Salt – to taste
Warm water – approx 1 to 1¼ cups
Oil – 1 tsp (for resting)
For the Paratha
Ghee – 1 tbsp (for layering each roll)
Maida – 1–2 tsp (for dusting)
Oil – 2–3 tbsp (for cooking)
For the Egg
Layer Eggs – 4 (1 per roll)
For the Filling
Onion – 1 large, thinly sliced
Cucumber – 1, thinly sliced
Green chillies – 2–3, finely chopped
Chilli sauce – 2–3 tbsp
Ketchup – 2–3 tbsp
Chaat masala – 1–2 tsp
Prepare the Dough In a bowl, mix maida, ghee, sugar, and salt. Add warm water gradually and knead into a soft dough. Transfer to a surface and knead for 4–5 minutes till smooth and elastic. Apply a little oil, cover, and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Make the Paratha Take a portion of dough and roll it into a thin roti. Apply ghee and sprinkle a little maida. Fold it like a paper fan, roll it into a coil, then flatten and roll again into a paratha. Cook on a hot tawa with oil till lightly crisp on both sides.
Add the Egg Layer Whisk one egg. Place the paratha back on the tawa, spread the egg on top, and cook. Flip so the egg side cooks properly and sticks to the paratha. Remove and keep aside.
Assemble the Roll Place the paratha on a plate. Add sliced onions, cucumber, green chillies. Drizzle chilli sauce and ketchup. Sprinkle chaat masala. Roll it tightly. Serve hot and enjoy this iconic street-style egg roll at home.
