Divide the dough into 4 rounds, cover and leave to rest for about 15 minutes.
4.
Heat a griddle over the stove. While it is getting hot, roll out one round.

The dough is sticky and soft, so you may need to dust it with flour frequently. Better still, pat it thin with your palms if you can.
6.
Keeping the heat on high, place the roti over the griddle, break an egg on to the center of it, sprinkle with 2 tsp of onion, salt, green chillies and 1 tbsp of coriander leaves.
7.
Lower heat to medium. To seal, fold over four ways towards the center, so that the ends overlap, thus forming a square.

Make a trail of ghee around it to fry the underside.

When the underside is fried, smear the top with a generous helping of ghee and turn over to fry to a golden brown.
