Delicious and flaky ceylon egg paratha which is my favorite of all the time. It can be served as it is or put in lunch box too.
This is a recipe or dish which was introduced to me by my husband. He bought home this parota once and it tasted so delicious. I wanted to recreate it and i made it yesterday for breakfast. It tasted so delicious. I served it with leftover chicken gravy and onion raita.
