How to Make Bangladeshi Egg With Paratha
- **Egg Preparation:**
- Crack 2 large eggs into a bowl.
- Add 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1-2 finely chopped green chilies (adjust to taste), 2 tablespoons chopped coriander leaves, 1 teaspoon coriander powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and salt to taste.
- Thoroughly mix all ingredients.
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the butter is melted, pour in the egg mixture.
- Cook until the bottom is lightly browned, then flip and cook the other side until set.

- **Paratha Preparation:**
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup milk, 2 tablespoons margarine, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Mix with a spoon, then gradually add warm water (about 1/2 cup, or more as needed) to form a soft, pliable dough.
- Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth. If using, you can use a dough maker.
- Divide the dough into 4-5 equal portions.
- Roll each portion into a thin, circular flatbread (about 6-8 inches in diameter), dusting with dry flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- Heat 1 tablespoon shortening in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Cook each paratha for 2-3 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
