Yesterday I went to Asiana Market in Glendale. It's a pretty good distance away but worth the trip for specialty food items from all over the world. I bought paratha which is an Indian flatbread; the word means "layers of dough". I searched on-line for recipes and found a You Tube video for a popular night time street food using paratha stuffed with an egg mixture. The paratha is placed in a hot, lightly oiled pan and cooked a couple of minutes on each side until it puffs up and can be easily separated. A mixture of one egg whisked with diced onion, cilantro and serrano chile is carefully placed in between the two layers and cooked until the paratha is brown and the egg is cooked inside. This can easily be made ahead of time and reheated in the microwave for a quick, delicious breakfast.
