Layered Egg Flatbread (Low-Calorie)
A slimmed-down anda paratha built from a single whole-wheat flatbread layered with a spiced whisked-egg filling, cooked with minimal oil in a nonstick pan instead of the usual ghee-laden griddling. Onion, chilli, and cilantro bring texture and heat, served hot with a wedge of lime.

Instructions
1
Prep
Whisk two eggs in a bowl with onion, green chili, cilantro, cumin, turmeric, and salt until combined.
2
Sear
Heat half the vegetable oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture and cook 1 minute until edges set.
3
Build
Lay the chapati over the half-set egg, pressing gently so raw egg soaks into bread. Cook 1 minute until golden.
4
Fry
Drizzle remaining oil around the edge, flip the stack, and cook the bread side 2–3 minutes over medium heat until crisp and egg is fully set.
5
Plate
Fold the flatbread in half, cut into wedges, and serve with a lime wedge.
