Egg Paratha

My sister got engaged last month. I'm happy for her. To me she is still a baby in her 3rd Std , with her pigtails held together by sky blue ribbons. Now she is old enough to get married..... Where did all that time go?
   Time just flies...I got married, had kids meanwhile. Imagine, I'm gonna be a wreck when my kids leave home for college.
   My life revolves around my kids now...My cooking revolves around mainly my son , who like most toddlers is temperamental when it comes to food. One day he loves the food you make, and the next he will not even touch the food by mistake. As his mom I have to be smarter and see to it that he gets what he likes and what is good for him. Tough balance! but I try.

  He usually eats his eggs for breakfast. Suddenly he decided, he hates eggs. Had to figure out a way to make him eat it without him knowing...Sneaky huh? :-D 

Since he likes roti so much, I made parathas with the leftover boiled eggs . They turned out great.                                Recipe                                                                                                                                                                            Boiled eggs 2-3    

                                                                  Carrot - grated half cup

Onion half finely chopped

Cheese 2 tsps        

                                            Salt

Pepper                                                                                                                                                       Roti/Phulka/Paratha dough- Recipe-   http://myattemptsatabalanceddiet.blogspot.com/2011/02/phulka.html                                                                                                                                        

Mash together eggs, carrots , onion, salt and pepper.                                                                                     Take the dough, about an inch in diameter. Flatten with a rolling pin. make the edges thinner than the centre.

Add about 2 teaspoonfuls of the egg mixture in the centre.                                                                        

Bring edges of the dough together to make a purse. remove extra dough.                                                      

Roll the dough along with the stuffing into about 2-3 mm thick parathas.                                                       

Cook on a hot pan, add oil on the edges.                                                                                                                                            

                                                                                                                                 

For adults trying to reduce cholesterol intake, use only egg whites and cook parathas without oil. 

I've tried adding some ketchup to the filling as well ...tastes great
