1. Combine the 2 Flours – Atta and Maida and add Salt and mix.
2. Add in the 1 tbsp of Oil and rub it into the flours.
3. Break 1 egg and combine the same way as the Oil.
4. Add in little Water at a time to form a dough. Be careful not to use too much. The dough should be just a little softer than Chapati dough.
5. Knead for a couple of minutes.
6. Drizzle a little Oil over the dough, coat it with the Oil and cover and allow it to rest for 15 min.
7. After 15 min. remove the cover and knead for a minute.

10. Like for Chapatis, take one ball and flatten between the palms.
11. Dust in some All Purpose Flour and roll to form Rotis.
12. The Rotis need to be thinner and bigger than Chapatis – keep dusting to help with rolling.
13. Place on the hot Tawa and allow it to cook till you see the dough color change and bubbles start to appear.
14. Flip the Roti and pour about 1/2 a beaten Egg on the Roti.
15. Smear the Egg and then flip the Roti once again very carefully.
16. Allow the Egg to cook for a couple of minutes.
17. Drizzle some Oil on the outside of the Roti on the Tawa to the Oil rolls into the center to help cook the Egg.
18. With a spatula, loosen the Egg from the Tawa.
19. Smear a little Oil on the top side of the Roti and flip once again.
20. Allow the bottom side to cook for just a minute and take the Roti off the Tawa and place it on a plate.

6. Roll the Roti with the chicken away from you to form a tight roll.
7. Wrap with foil to keep warm or put in a toothpick to keep it from unwrapping.

2. Use Chutney of your liking.
3. Add in some Pickled Onions for an extra crunch.
