This paratha uses a layered approach instead of raw stuffing. Eggs are softly scrambled with herbs, then sealed inside whole-wheat dough made using Aashirvaad Shudh Chakki Atta. The atta’s chakki grinding and moisture retention allow the dough to stretch without tearing, even with a warm filling. The result is a paratha that puffs cleanly on the tawa, stays tender inside, and carries the flavour of eggs and herbs evenly from centre to edge without greasiness or dryness.
Add Aashirvaad Shudh Chakki Atta and salt to a wide bowl. Gradually pour in water and knead into a soft, elastic dough. Chakki-ground whole wheat absorbs moisture steadily, preventing sudden stickiness. Cover and rest for 10 minutes to allow gluten relaxation, which ensures smooth rolling later.

Egg Whisking
Crack eggs into a bowl and add onion, green chilli, coriander, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Whisk briskly until the herbs distribute evenly through the liquid egg. Proper mixing prevents herb clumps and ensures balanced flavour across the filling.

Soft Scramble
Heat oil in a pan on low–medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and stir continuously, scraping the base gently. Stop cooking as soon as the eggs turn softly set and glossy. The scramble must remain moist; dry eggs tighten and break the dough during rolling.

Portioning Dough
Divide the rested dough into four equal portions. Roll each into a smooth, sealed ball. The surface should feel supple and slightly springy, indicating correct hydration and dough strength.
Description - Step 5
Filling & Sealing
Flatten one dough ball slightly and place a portion of cooled scrambled egg in the centre. Bring the edges upward and seal firmly. Proper sealing prevents steam leaks while cooking and keeps the egg layer evenly distributed.

Rolling Parathas
Dust lightly with dry atta and roll into a 6-inch disc using gentle, outward strokes. Avoid pressing hard at the edges. The dough should stretch smoothly without exposing the filling.

Tawa Cooking
Heat a tawa on medium heat. Cook the paratha until the underside sets and bubbles appear. Flip and cook the second side. Apply ghee on both sides and roast until golden patches deepen and the paratha puffs lightly.

Serve
Remove from heat and allow to rest briefly. The interior should remain soft with fluffy egg layers, while the exterior stays lightly crisp and evenly browned.
