Ingredients

For the wrap

250 g all-purpose flour maida
Salt
Sugar
10-12 g Refined oil/ dalda
Warm water

For the filling

3 eggs
Onions Chopped
Green chilies Chopped
1 Gandharaj lime/normal lime
2 tbsp chat masala
1-2 tbsp rock salt
1 tbsp black pepper powder
1 cucumber chopped
Capsicum
carrot optional
Tomato ketchup
Red chili sauce
green chili sauce optional
Vegetable oil

Instructions

Pepare the outer wrap or paratha

To make the wrap add all-purpose flour to a bowl.
Then add salt, sugar accordingly, and refined oil or dalda to the flour.
Mix all the ingredients well until the oil is uniformly dispersed over the flour.
Rub the flour properly between the fingers until the flour gives a flaky texture.
Now add warm water to the mixture and knead the dough for about 7-10 minutes until it turns soft and smooth.
Add a little bit of refined oil for coating the dough.
Now cover the bowl and allow it to rest for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the filling

Now chop all the veggies that you would like to include as a filling in the egg roll. I prefer to add finely sliced onions, cucumber, and green chilies.
Chop all these veggies and pickle those with lime.
You can use “Gandharaj lime” for pickling. If you do not have Gandharaj lime you can use normal lime also.
If you want, you can include other veggies like carrot and capsicum too.

Fry the outer wrap or paratha

Now take out the dough and roll it in the shape of paratha with flour and oil.
On the other side, beat the eggs with salt, a pinch of red chili powder, and black pepper, and keep it aside.
Now heat 4 tbsp of oil in a nonstick frying pan.
Place the paratha on it and fry it until both sides turn golden brown.
Try to make the Paratha more crispy and uniformly crusted by rotating and flipping the paratha continuously.
Make sure that the sides of parathas are well crispy and fried too.
Now spread the beaten egg over it.
Then again turn the paratha upside down to fry the side with the egg.
After the egg is fried and settles well, transfer the paratha to a dish with the egg facing upwards.

Prepare the egg roll

Now add a row of the pickled veggies in the center of the paratha.
Sprinkle the chat masala over it and also add rock salt and black pepper.
If you want you can also add some extra stuff like tomato ketchup and chili sauce to make it more spicy and tangy.
Add some lime juice over it.
Now roll the paratha and make sure all the fillings are enclosed within the paratha.
Now wrap the paratha around the ⅔ rd portion of the roll and tuck the excess part at the bottom.
Kolkata style egg roll is now ready.
