Ingredients

  • 4 nos chapathi
  • 2 nos eggs
  • ½ cup onion chopped finely
  • ½ cup tomato chopped finely
  • ¼ teaspoon fennel seeds powder
  • salt to taste

To temper:

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • ½ teaspoon mustard seeds
  • few nos curry leaves
  • 1 no green chilli slitted

Instructions

  • Take the chapathis, tear it roughly and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a kadai – add mustard seeds let it splutter then add curry leaves and green chillies quickly saute. Add onion and saute until it shrinks and is transparent.
  • Then add tomatoes. Sauté for few min then using a masher mash it up, then keep sauteing until it turns mushy.
  • Add fennel seeds powder give a quick saute. Then add eggs and pepper powder. Scramble well.
  • Once it gets scrambled well add the torn chapathi pieces. Toss well until coated.
  • Switch off and serve Egg chapathi hot!

Notes

  • Chapathi – I prefer chapathi that is little dry or 1 day old. Tear into small even pieces for better coating.
  • Tomato – Mash tomato well and cook until it turns mushy. This removes rawness and gives good masala base. Use ripe tomato for better colour. Don’t skip this step.
  • Tempering – I let mustard seeds splutter fully before adding curry leaves. Keep flame medium so that it does not burn. 
  • Scrambling – I scramble egg until it is almost cooked and little moist. Overcooked egg turns rubbery and dry. Keep stirring on low flame.
  • Tossing – Add chapathi pieces and toss gently on low flame. Rough mixing will break them into crumbs. Switch off once everything is coated.
  • Salt – Taste the masala before adding chapathi. Chapathi already has some salt, so add less than you think. You can always adjust later.
