Ingredients
Quantities for 4 servings.
- 400 g Flour
- 240 ml Warm water
- 8 piece Eggs
- 200 g Cabbage, finely shredded
- 3 piece Tomatoes
- 2 piece Onions
- 1 piece Carrot
- 1 piece Chilli
- 120 ml Vegetable oil
- to taste Salt and pepper
Method
- Knead a soft dough from the flour, warm water, a spoon of oil and salt and rest it twenty minutes.
- Roll a ball thin, brush it with oil, roll it into a rope, coil it like a snail and roll it out again.
- Cook the chapatis over medium heat, a minute and a half a side, and keep them under a cloth.
- Shred the cabbage, carrot, onion, tomatoes and chilli as fine as you can.
- Beat the eggs with the vegetables, salt and pepper; the vegetables belong inside the omelette, not on top.
- Pour a portion of egg into the pan, let it set and lay a chapati on top, pressing it down.
- Flip the two together, slide them onto a board omelette up and roll it tight.
