Ingredients
  

Chapati

  • 3 cups Plain Flour
  • 1.5 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Water
  • Oil

Filling

  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 Carrot grated
  • 1 Onion diced
  • 1 Pepper chopped
  • 2 Tomatoes sliced
  • Grated Cabbage/Chilli (optional)
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • Add the flour and salt into a bowl, then add the water a little at a time to make a dough (you don’t always need to use a full cup) 
  • Knead the dough – it shouldn’t be sticky or too soft (add a little flour if it feels too soft) 
  • Take the dough and divide it into round balls smaller than a fist. Once all the dough is used up brush with oil and allow to sit for 20 minutes 
  • After 20 minutes roll each of the dough balls into large pancakes not too thick – a quarter inch at most. 
  • On an oiled flat pan fry the chapati, turning frequently so it doesn’t burn 
  • Crack eggs into a dish 
  • Add the carrot, onion and pepper to the egg 
  • Add some grated cabbage and chilli’s (Optional) 
  • Pour the mix onto a hot pan and spread so it’s quite thin 
  • Cook through
  • Place the chapati on top of the egg so you can cook the other side - the heat helps to make the chapati roll better
  • Remove from the heat placing the chapati side down, add sliced tomato and roll
