Prepare the dough: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking powder with 2 teaspoons olive oil. Whisk to combine. Form a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the water. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir gently until the dough comes together. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for a few minutes until it forms a smooth ball. Rub the ball of dough in 1 to 2 teaspoons olive oil. Cover the dough loosely in plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
While the dough rests, prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the egg and egg yolk, onion, cilantro, chile, turmeric, salt and pepper.
Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface into a rough 12-by-12-inch square.
Place the filling in the center and spread in an even layer, leaving a 2-inch border on each side.
Gently lift the left side of the dough toward the middle and fold it, bringing the left edge slightly to the right of the middle of the filling. Repeat on the right side, folding the right edge of the dough toward the middle of the filling, so both sides slightly overlap at the center. Reinforce the seams by gently pinching them.
Finish sealing in the filling: Fold the top edge of the dough down toward the middle, just far enough to safely seal in the filling, about 2 inches down, then fold the bottom edge up to seal in the filling, about 2 inches up, gently pressing to seal. Your end result should look like a rectangle.
Fry the paratha: In a large skillet, heat the neutral oil over medium-high. Place paratha in the skillet, seam-side up, carefully spooning the hot oil on top of the paratha to baste it, tilting the pan if need be. Fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes, then carefully flip the paratha over and baste and cook until golden, another 5 minutes.
Serve hot, ideally, or at room temperature, cut in half into two rectangular pieces.
Excellent! For a little extra flakiness in the dough, I made the fat content 3 teaspoons butter, plus 1 teaspoon lard.
Added maybe 1/3 cup diced , spiced beef. Rolled out the dough and then folded onto itself and rolled times 4 so that the dough would be flakier and then rolled back out to a 12 x 12” square and proceeded with recipe. Also subbed rogan josh for turmeric. The pastry was well laminated and flaky. I would definitely make again. The other notes were correct and I added a bit more water and fat to the dough.
You can get this technique down quickly - then you are going to want to make this EVERY week. Don’t worry to much about the dough; even if it’s a bit rough, it will come together. I followed exactly save parsley swap for cilantro cause I did not have it. I look forward to adding spinach or potato next
Pretty easy for beginners and SO tasty

Seems versatile. Delicious as the recipe directs. Made with groceries I usually have on hand. We had this for a late breakfast today, but would make a tasty meal any time of day.
Great with a sauce of saracha aioli

Definitely a side dish and not a meal!
Ate a little dry. Hot sauce recommended.
I found it hard to get the folded over ends cooked evenly when you make a gib 10" paratha. I tried dividing into two and while it took a while to get the dough rolled out and rested so it stopped snapping back, two smaller parathas cooked better - the dough wasn't as thick. I added garam masala and a little more salt. Yum!
Really nice recipe, very tasty-- however, I found that 5 minutes per side was way too long--it got much too dark. Definitely check it about 2.5 minutes in, or turn the heat down a twinge. Also agree that the filing could use more salt.
Like others, I found I needed to add more water and fat to get the right consistency. It turned out amazing. Will definitely be making it again and again
I sprinkled some Aleppo pepper into the filling and it was nice and fiery. Definitely extra oil / butter for the dough!
Inaara and I made this October 2020. It was easy compared to making individual rotis.
I don’t think I put an egg and if I did it was only one egg, not additional yolk.
Like others I found the amount of water too small for the dough and had to add to get it to a smooth shape.
i subbed out cilantro for parsley and it worked great. my filling was a little eggy (some of the liquid escaped while i was folding) but it fried up well and the dough was delicious. this is a fun one.
