8. Refined oil - 2 tablespoon
9. Chili sauce - 1 teaspoon
10. Tomato sauce - 1 teaspoon
11. Black pepper - 1 teaspoon

Okay, let's start!

• Add a tablespoon of refined oil and salt to refined flour and make a dough
• Let the dough rest for 10 minutes
• In a bowl, mix grated carrot, cucumber, chopped green chili and sliced onions along with salt, pepper and lemon juice
• Now roll out the dough on all sides evenly, adding flour as needed, try to stretch it with the help of rolling pin as much as possible. The thinner it is, the better but avoid tearing
• Heat a frying pan, once the frying pan is real hot, place the flattened refined flour dough on it and cook both the sides on low flame for 20 seconds
• Add 1/2 tablespoon of refined oil to it and fry the flattened refined flour dough on both the sides to make a paratha, when it is crispy, puffy and golden brown, it's time to take the paratha out of the frying pan
• Beat the egg with little salt, add remaining refined oil to the frying pan and pour the egg, spread it to cover the frying pan
• Immediately place the paratha on top of the egg and press the paratha so that it sticks well with the egg
• Flip the paratha along with the egg, the well cooked egg would be on top of the paratha
• Keep the flame low, add the mixture of carrot-cucumber-green chili-onion on top of the egg layer
• Add tomato & chili sauce to it and roll it 
• Keep the egg roll on low flame for another 5 seconds, then serve hot
